Event details

About

Inkin The Coast lands November 6 to 8, 2026 at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum & Convention Center on Beach Boulevard in Biloxi. Around its 15th year, the Inkin Productions show has become the Gulf Coast's flagship tattoo festival, packing roughly 150 artists alongside piercers, sideshow and entertainment acts, contests, special guests, after-parties, and a full vendor hall.

For a working artist, this is the marquee stop on the central Gulf Coast, a region underserved by major conventions, so it concentrates collector demand from Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama into one weekend. The casino-beach setting and the festival-style entertainment program keep the floor busy after dark and turn the event into a destination rather than a daytime trade show, which rewards artists who can hold a booth and book across a long, high-energy weekend.
