Posted by Dustin on July 11, 2016 at 07:32 PM CST


Here’s what they have in store for everyone:

­The Artists!
First and foremost, the duo have brought together over twenty of the world’s best and highest profile tattoo artists/Star Wars fans who will be on site, slingin’ ink, talkin’ nerdy and giving attendees the ultimate Celebration souvenir! All of the artists who will be at the event have been hand­picked by Marc and Shane and have been approved by the London Board of Health to ensure the highest standard of excellence!
With so many artists at the show you can rest assured that all styles of tattooing will be represented ­ from traditional to portrait realism and everything in between! If you’re interested in getting a tattoo at Celebration, big or small, it’s important to know that walk­ups may be possible with some of the artists but many are quickly booking in advance so have a look over the list to see who’s artistry you like the most and drop them a line to discuss any ideas you might have!
