Central California's busy 22nd-annual tattoo convention, now hosted at Table Mountain Casino just outside Fresno.

Event details

About

The Fresno Tattoo Expo returns for its 22nd annual edition March 6 to 8, 2026, at Table Mountain Casino in Friant, just north of Fresno. Long billed as the World Famous Fresno Tattoo Convention, it is one of the busiest shows in the industry and the anchor tattoo event for California's Central Valley, drawing enthusiasts and top artists from across the region and beyond.

The appeal for artists is a large, captive regional draw with limited local competition. The Central Valley is a dense population corridor with few major conventions of this scale, so Fresno consolidates that demand into a single weekend. The move to a casino venue adds destination pull and a built-in entertainment crowd, making it a reliable, high-traffic booking for artists who want volume from a loyal Central California collector base rather than a coastal scene.

What to expect
