Oslo Tattoo Show is where tattoo history, contemporary art, and community come together, all in
one place.

For three days, Oslo becomes a meeting point for professional tattoo artists from Scandinavia,
Europe, the Americas, and beyond. Watch live tattooing, get tattooed by experienced artists,
and experience the craft up close.

Step into our tattoo history museum with a special focus on Norwegian heritage, discover the
stories behind the traditions, and see how the past continues to shape modern tattooing.
Between sessions, explore our mini market with prints, clothing, and independent brands, enjoy
food stands and a full bar, and take in the atmosphere. The event is designed to be welcoming
and accessible, whether you are heavily tattooed, curious, or simply passing by.
We also place a strong focus on younger visitors.

 

A dedicated children’s area offers drawing
activities, games, and a kids’ art competition to inspire creativity in a safe and fun environment.
This year we are proud to support the Norwegian Childhood Cancer Society
(Barnekreftforeningen) through a weekend charity lottery, with prizes donated by participating
artists.

Oslo Tattoo Show is more than a convention, it is a cultural gathering.
A place where art, history, and people meet.
