All entries must be tattooed during the show to be eligible, except for ‘Healed’ categories on Sunday.

  • Healed tattoos must be completely healed and not touched up during the event. We have two categories for them.
  • Xpert Banger is for pre-drawn flash done as a walk-up ONLY. The client must bring the line design up with them for judging.
  • You may enter a tattoo done on Friday into a Saturday competition, but this is at the hosts’ discretion. We aim to encourage healthy relationships with tattoos and the time and care they deserve.
  • Each artist or client must be present at the time of judging.
  • Make sure to register ahead of each contest time entries close 15 minutes before each category.
