4. Starfire Tattoo Weekend Wilhelmshaven

Ahoy, tattoo-loving landlubbers and proud sailors! Set sail and prepare for an unforgettable adventure: the 4th Wilhelmshaven Tattoo Weekend, which will take place on November 1st and 2nd, 2025, in the venerable Gorch Fock House!

As befits a port city, this event is deeply rooted in maritime tradition and promises to be a spectacle of a very special kind.

Since the 18th century, tattoo studios have been an integral part of port cities like Wilhelmshaven. In the past, it was primarily the brave sailors who commemorated their adventures on the high seas with artistic motifs. The shimmering waves, the exciting nights, and the unforgettable encounters with foreign cultures were immortalized in ink on skin. While today’s customers may no longer primarily come from maritime professions, the fascination with body art remains.

On this first weekend in November, the Gorch Fock Haus transforms into a vibrant shipyard of creativity and artistry. Here, you can look over the shoulders of talented tattoo artists from Germany and Europe as they create their masterpieces with fine needles and bright colors. You’ll witness the intensive creative process, where every stitch tells a story and every color conveys an emotion.

But the 4th Wilhelmshaven Tattoo Weekend offers much more than just watching! It will be a treasure trove of information about current styles, trends, and motifs. Whether you’re looking for a classic anchor, a delicate rose, or a mysterious tribal motif, you’ll find endless inspiration here. And if the muse strikes and the desire for your own tattoo becomes overwhelming, you can get one of these permanent skin designs on-site!

Opening hours are Saturday from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Admission is a mere €15, but for those who presale, there’s a discounted ticket for just €12 – so hurry up, get to the nearest gun and book your tickets at www.tattooeventbooking.com!

There’s already a huge demand, and spots are in high demand. Don’t miss this opportunity, as the best artists could sell out quickly.

Speaking of artists: For all creative minds and masters of needle techniques, there are still some exhibitor spots available! Show your art, share your passion, and be part of this unique event. Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned pro, the Wilhelmshaven tattoo community welcomes each of you warmly and with open arms.

So, my brave sailors and courageous pirates, mark November 1st and 2nd in your calendars and get ready for a weekend full of art, passion, and excitement! Whether you’re looking for a new tattoo yourself or simply want to explore the fascinating world of tattooing, the 4th Wilhelmshaven Tattoo Weekend is the destination for you!

Set sail, bring your friends, and let’s immerse ourselves in the wonderful world of tattoos together – it will be a celebration you won’t forget! Until then, stay brave and tattooed!
