The Hell City Tattoo Festival is a celebration of body art and the education of tattooing and other forms of body modification for all. Nowhere else can you find such a collection of skilled tattoo artists in one area. Every year thousands of people come for the weekend to be tattooed by the worlds best artists and hang out with others in the tattoo community. If you see any of the attending artists you would like to get tattooed by on the HC website, it is a good idea to book your artist early, you can do that by clicking the attending artists studio link. But Hell City does not just have tattooing as entertainment. All weekend long various acts, contests, art fusion, and other entertainment happen in the festival. This is a world class convention, smooth running, and packed with hundreds of brilliant artists from the world over. Hell City has come to be one of the industries favorite events. Everyone appreciates the festival because the atmosphere is warm, jovial and welcoming to the guests who come for a peek into another world. We encourage you to explore the Hell City website, poke around, browse the photo galleries of the past HC's, and share them with your mates and loved ones. Aside from TV specials and any vibe you think you get when you drive by your local tattoo studio, where else will you learn the truth of tattooing and other art forms? This is an industry tradeshow, one that covers body modification in all forms, historical to futuristic, education to exhilaration. Hell City is an exhibition of all styles, be they painterly or bold, thematically obscure or even downright spooky. You may also enjoy the bands, art gallery, clothes, stickers, skateboards, motorcycle stuff, dames, photography, prints, paintings for sale, food and drinks, the colorful people, about a million tattoo photos from attending artists, tattoo competitions, all the amazing books, the sweet Heck City booth just for kids, the hilarious MC, the hotel and the charity fundraisers....Definitely an event not to be missed!!
