Welcome to the dino tattoo show

Where ancient beasts meet modern ink

Created in 2022 by renowned tattoo artists Faye Skinner and Jayke Cox, the Dino Tattoo Show was inspired by a shared vision: to build a unique tattoo convention made by artists, for artists. One evening, with creativity fuelled by a few jars of “Dino Juice”, the idea came to life.

As long-time professionals on the convention circuit, Faye and Jayke wanted more than just another tattoo event. They wanted something spectacular, something that sparked wonder – and what better way than to bring dinosaurs into the mix?

After all, who doesn’t love dinosaurs? Whether you’re a fan of Tyrannosaurus ink or have perfected your Velociraptor call, this show is about celebrating art, community, and imagination.

Now in its second year, the Dino Tattoo Show continues to grow, drawing tattoo enthusiasts, artists, and dino-lovers from across the UK and beyond.

Unleash your inner dinosaur. Discover the wildest tattoo experience the UK has to offer.
