Tampa Bay's #1 Tattoo Event
Welcome to Cigar City Tattoo Fest!
In 2009, a group of tattooers were seeking to bring tattoo culture to Tampa with respect, while incorporating the rich cigar history of Ybor City. The Cigar City Tattoo Convention was born!
After a decade long hiatus, please join us for the revival of the new and improved CIGAR CITY TATTOO FEST!
What to Expect
CIGAR CITY TATTOO FEST 2026

At Cigar City Tattoo Fest, I look around and see "tattoos that look like tattoos", real paintings and flash, original art, camaraderie, lots of coil machines, years of hard work and talent, body suits, bad assery... If that sounds like your kinda thing, come hang with us!
