Great Western Tattoo Show 2025

The Great Western Tattoo Show 2025 takes place within the historic former railway works. Experience a gathering of up to 100 talented tattoo artists, alongside a variety of trader stalls, a bar, coffee kiosk, multiple food trucks, and lively entertainment. The event is held in the Great Western Hall, which forms part of STEAM – The Museum of the Great Western Railway, located next to The National Trust headquarters featuring shops and cafés, as well as the expansive McArthur Glen Designer Outlet Village, home to 14 restaurants and 90 major brand stores. Ample low-cost parking is available near the Outlet Village, and the town center, train, and bus stations are all within walking distance. Swindon is celebrated for its rich industrial past, especially its connection to the Great Western Railway (GWR). We are proud to bring this tattoo convention to the Great Western Hall, a venue steeped in the history of the converted railway works. Tickets are available in advance: a weekend pass for those aged 16 and over costs £25, while single-day tickets for Saturday or Sunday are £15 each. Admission is free for children aged 15 and under. Join us to celebrate tattoo artistry in this unique and historic setting.
