Convention making big impression
Stigmatophiles from all corners of the UK will converge on Brighton next month when 300 of the world's top tattooists will be giving it the needle for the 12th year in a row.
From its humble beginnings at Brighton Race Course in 2007, the Brighton Tattoo Convention has grown year on year into a major event on the world tattoo calendar.
This year there will be lots in store for visitors to look forward to from 23-24 February, including exciting parties, collaborations and presentations, with the event now taking place in The Brighton Centre, the largest exhibition centre in the south.
There'll also be a chance to watch some amazing tattooists from all over the world, check out scores of traders and eye up some great exhibitions.
