Papillon Tattoo Convention #5

The Papillon Tattoo Convention #5 is scheduled for September 12, 2025. This is the fifth edition of this event. The specific venue and city location within the United States are still to be announced by the organizers. Attendees can expect a typical convention layout with areas for live tattooing, where artists will be applying tattoos on-site. There will be booths for tattoo artists and vendors selling apparel, aftercare products, and art. Tattoo competitions are often a central part of these events, allowing artists to showcase their work in categories like best of day or specific styles. For planning, you should bring a valid ID and cash, as not all vendors may accept cards. Check the event's official social media pages for updates on the venue, ticket sales, and a list of attending artists. The US has a diverse tattoo culture, from American traditional to fine-line black and grey, and conventions are a central part of that community.
