About
The Tahoe Tattoo Show returns for its 9th edition April 24 to 26, 2026 at Harrah's Lake Tahoe in Stateline, Nevada, on the lake's south shore. It is the American sister event to the Evian Tattoo Show, which the same team has run in the French Alps since 2007; they chose Tahoe for its resemblance to Lake Evian, both alpine lakes ringed by mountains. The result is a tightly curated lineup of roughly 160 artists in a true destination setting.
For working artists, the draw is curation and clientele. Unlike sprawling open-floor expos, a hand-picked roster of 160 keeps quality high and competition meaningful, and the casino-resort location pulls in collectors who travel and spend like they are on vacation. If your work warrants a destination booking and you want to be seen alongside a vetted international field rather than lost in a crowd, this is one of the most prestigious mid-size shows in the Mountain West.
