More and more good news coming your way!

 

As you know by now, Sibiu is home to some great events, and Transilvania Tattoo Expo is one of them!

We are super excited to introduce you to the 9th edition of Transilvania Tattoo Expo which takes place this weekend. This year, Transilvania Tattoo Expo will take place in a new venue, at Casa Armatei, on Victoriei Boulevard,no. 5.

For this year’s edition, Transilvania Tattoo Club wanted to bring together some of the greatest artists from all around the world. So be prepared for the coolest event yet!

As it has always been, the purpose of this event is to promote Sibiu as a modern and tolerant city to the new forms of artistic expression, and also to inform and educate the public about body art.

What makes this event awesome? It offers visitors an amazing opportunity to see how a really successful tattoo is performed. You have the possibility to interact with tattoo artists and you even have the opportunity to be tattooed by one of the artists present at this event! #feelingexcited & #feelinglucky sounds about right! And with 50 of the most known artists from around the world coming to this year’s edition, you sure do have options!

The artists are literally coming from every corner of the world: the United States of America, Spain, Mexico, Venezuela, Denmark and other countries. You’ll get to see Robert Hernandez, Iker “Don Fat” Ruiz, Liorcifer, Benjamin Moss, Maximo Lutz, Victor Policheri and many others.

the highlight of this year’s edition?

 

The participation of some really unique characters: Yallzee,the tattoo collector, Emilio Gonzalez and Red Skull with the gorgeous ladies America and Venus!

Emilio and the beautiful America are coming for the second time in Sibiu. The 39 years old venezuelan is one of the most recognizable and most published body artists in the world, and is definitely one of the “celebrities” of the body modification world. He specializes in surgical procedures such as ear pointing, tongue splitting, scalpelled piercings, extreme implants and nipple removal and is generally considered one of the more radical artists currently working in the world. Of course, the lovely America lives up to the high standards, as she is one of the most beautiful and most appreciated models of the body modification world.

Red Skull, or Henry Rodriguez by his original name, has undergone plastic surgery for more than 130 hours over the past 7 years. All this so that he could transform himself into his childhood “hero” – Red Skull, the nazi leader, enemy of Captain America. All the procedures have been done by his good friend, none other than Emilio Gonzales. He’s had his eyes tattooed black, implants inserted in multiple areas of the face, he’s cut off a part of his nose and years, and he continued with tattooing his face in red and black. His partner, the exotic venezuelan dancer Venus Afrotida is promising a hot-hot-hot show for this year’s edition of Transilvania Tattoo Expo!

Last, but not least, the Expo is going to have the best jury this year, with Yallzee headlining the event. Yall Quinones – Yallzee – is Puerto Rico born, and he’s been attracted to art since childhood. His body has become a real work of art, as he has been tattooed by over 30 famous tattoo artists! He will trully be an impressive sight, so you might not want to miss this year’s edition of Transilvania Tattoo Expo. If anything, you will get to take a most valuable #selfie with some of the beauties and the “beasts” present! 

The show wouldn’t be complete without some hard “steel”, so be prepared to admire some customized and classic motorcycles. During the 3 days of the convention, the public will be able to admire a series of wheels created by talentated Romanian and foreign bike builders.

So, amazing tattoo artists, tattoo seminars, and some mean wheels!This one’s not to be missed!

And most of all..be sure you don’t miss the crazy afterparties! Book your table using Travelscounter, and you’ll also get a 15% discount off the final bill!! Enjoy!
