Ink Fest Chile Sunset 2027

INKFESTCHILE returns to La Serena on 13–14 February 2027 for its third and most ambitious edition to date, bringing together more than 200 tattoo artists from Chile and around the world.

The convention continues the rapid growth of an event that has established itself as an important meeting point for Chile’s tattoo industry. Its second edition presented more than 150 national and international artists alongside a competition programme featuring ten official categories. In 2027, INKFESTCHILE expands its artist lineup while continuing to strengthen the connections between tattoo artists, collectors, suppliers, brands and the wider community.

Taking place at Hotel Club La Serena, directly across from the Pacific Ocean, the convention offers a distinctive seaside setting in which visitors can watch professional tattoo artists working live, explore a wide variety of tattoo styles and experience the creativity and culture surrounding contemporary tattooing.

Competitions will take place across multiple categories throughout the weekend, evaluated by a panel of respected invited judges. A Best of Day award will recognize the finest tattoo completed on Saturday, followed by a second Best of Day competition on Sunday.

The convention will culminate with the prestigious Best of the Event award, presented to the outstanding tattoo of INKFESTCHILE 2027. The winning artist will receive a CLP $500,000 cash prize and recognition for creating the finest work of the entire convention.

The programme will also feature tattoo-industry sponsors, leading brands and specialist suppliers. Created by tattoo artists for tattoo artists, INKFESTCHILE provides a professional platform for established names and emerging talent while promoting tattooing as a serious and evolving art form.

INKFESTCHILE is a family-friendly event open to visitors of all ages, offering a safe and welcoming environment in which the public can discover tattoo art and meet the people behind the work.

Registration for tattoo artists, piercers and exhibitors is now open. The first 30 stands will receive preferential rates and additional benefits, subject to availability. Participants should contact the organizer directly for official regulations, stand prices and payment information.
