On July 12-14 we visited the Aus Tattoo Expo in Brisbane. The event was a huge success, with the chance to meet some of the biggest names in the industry. With artists from all across the globe under one roof, the expo was a great opportunity to experience the tattoo industry up close and personal. We took our artists Nashy, Z Banger, Rico, Nick and Cotteez, to add to an incredible lineup. As a result, there were some amazing pieces created over the weekend, which can be seen below.

Firstly, it was a great chance for people that are local to Brisbane and the Gold Coast to meet the Blackmarket team and make some bookings. With limited edition prints available, there was a chance to pick up personalised artwork from our artists. We also brought along the latest streetwear, including our collaboration with Journeys Apparel. Lastly, there was some amazing entertainment with trapeze artists, burlesque performers and fire shows.
