2nd Annual Tattoo Fest to Take Place in Poughkeepsie

Love tattoos and tattoo culture? Get ready, a huge tattoo expo will be held at the Majed J. Nesheiwat Convention Center (formerly the Mid Hudson Civic Center) 14 Civic Center Plaza, Poughkeepsie, NY on March 27, 28 and 29, 2020.

Do you think that this show is only going to be a place where people get tattooed and nothing else? Wrong. Yes, there will be artists there who will be able to give you great body art, but there will also be live music, entertainment, food and vendors. The entire three days is all ages. Yes, THREE DAYS, all ages.

If you are looking to get tattooed during the festival you will need to contact the artists (over 200 artists from around the world will be in attendance) who you want to ink you as they will make their own appointments. In order to be tattooed, you will need to provide proof with a government-issued ID that you are over the age of 18.

Tickets for the three-day event will cost you, $25 for a one day pass, $65 for a weekend pass and then a VIP weekend pass which includes admission and a limited edition 2020 HVTF T-shirt and will have you skip the lines.

Here are the show hours:

Friday 3/27/20 - 2 PM -11 PM
Saturday 3/28/20 - 12 PM -11 PM
Sunday 3/29/20 - 12 PM - 6 PM
