The Jerez Tattoo Convention returns for its 6th edition on March 6, 7, and 8, 2026, at IFECA – Institución Ferial de Cádiz in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz, Spain. This three-day event fills the exhibition hall with tattoo stations, supply vendors, and art booths. Jerez de la Frontera sits in the heart of Andalusia, a region with deep roots in flamenco and traditional Spanish culture. The local tattoo scene has grown rapidly over the past decade, with shops opening across the city and artists specializing in everything from black-and-grey realism to traditional Spanish designs. The convention floor is divided into sections for working artists, supply companies, and jewelry vendors. Artists set up booths with portfolios available for walk-in appointments or pre-booked sessions. Many attendees come specifically to get tattooed by guest artists who travel from Madrid, Barcelona, and other European cities. Competitions run throughout the weekend with categories for small tattoos, large pieces, and best of day. Judges evaluate work based on technical execution and design. The event also includes seminars for tattooers looking to improve specific techniques. IFECA is located on the edge of Jerez city center with parking available on site. Several hotels are within walking distance or a short taxi ride, including options near the Plaza del Arenal. The venue has food concessions, though many attendees walk to nearby restaurants during breaks. Tickets are available for single days or the full weekend. The event runs from midday until evening, with exact hours posted closer to the date. First-time visitors should bring cash for deposits and merchandise, as not all vendors accept cards. This is the 6th edition of the convention, establishing it as a regular fixture in the Spanish tattoo calendar. The organizer has focused on creating a space where collectors can meet artists in a professional setting without the crowds of larger city conventions.
