Tattoo premium events. We handle the rest.
Do you want to work at events for brands like Playboy, Red Bull, HarperCollins and more? We're always looking for licensed, event-ready artists who love a great room and a fast line. You bring the craft — we bring the clients, the permits, the assistants, and the logistics. Get paid well per event and keep your studio schedule yours.
Do what you love, without the chaos
Event tattooing is a different skill than shop tattooing, and great artists shouldn't have to also be event producers. We staff a full crew around you — assistants who prep and clean, hosts who manage the line and waivers, and a coordinator who owns the logistics. You show up, tattoo, and leave the setup and teardown to us.
A crew that has your back
We built Tattoo Popups to be the event partner we wished existed when we were freelancing.
