WORLD TATTOO EVENTS
“Show me a man with a tattoo and I’ll show you a man with an interesting past.”
• Jack London •
I’ve been very fascinated by tattoos since I was teenager, getting my first tattoo in 1996 in London by Bugs.
I started my working career as an IT guy and I’m actually still pretty much a computer nerd. In 2010 I’ve founded World Tattoo Events and as the name suggests, is a website mapping Tattoo Conventions from every corner of the world. Before the Covid pandemic it was ranking among the top 5 most trafficked websites online, listing over 1500 different tattoo conventions.
It’s funny how sometimes life goes, but thanks to World Tattoo Events I have accidentally embarked into an incredible journey where my youth dreams finally came true: travelling the word full time, discovering new places, visiting tattoo conventions and meeting some of the most interesting people on the planet.
It really doesn’t get much better than this and I’m extremely committed to keep improving the best online platform for the tattoo conventions industry.
