CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION
Heads Up, Ink Lovers: We love tattoo diversity, but with so many artists and styles we unfortunately have to make a few cuts. That's why this year, too, there's a selected range of categories. Please understand that not every style gets its own stage - but hey, stay tuned, maybe next time it'll work out!
The following conditions apply to all other categories:
- Minimum age: 18 years – sorry, Kids, no exceptions!
- The artists must have a stand at the show – no booth, no contest!
- Healed tattoos are cool and may participate in almost every category – außer bei Best of Day und Best of Show.
- Each tattoo can only participate in one category – choose wisely!
- Motives for Best of Day und Best of Show must be 100% made during convention days of the TattooCON
- Registration is closing 30 minutes before the start of the contest in the Wildcat VIP Lounge. Be on time, otherwise that's it!
