During the TATTOO exhibition there are all kinds of activities to experience in and around the Forum.
During the opening weekend of Tattoo, the Forum is the center of the international tattoo scene. For the tattoo convention that we organize with Henk Schiffmacher, forty of the world's best tattoo artists come to Groningen with a versatile program full of live sessions, demonstrations, talks, music and films!
But even after the opening weekend we organize several activities around the exhibition. Read here what there is to do around the exhibition TATTOO from June 28th, 2025 to January 4th, 2026.
