Big Tattoo Burn-Up 2026
We’re bringing something seriously exciting to Exeter – Big Tattoo Burn-Up is landing at Exeter University on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th September 2026, and it’s the first event of its kind the city’s ever seen. More than 120 top tattoo artists from across the UK will be joining us for a weekend packed with creativity, ink, and energy. Expect buzzing machines, bold designs, and a seriously good atmosphere.
But it’s not just about tattoos. We’re mixing things up with alternative fashion, gothic jewellery, handmade homeware, taxidermy, live signwriting, face painting, cowboy hats, and plenty more weird and wonderful finds. Whether you’re hunting for fresh ink, unique treasures, or just want an unforgettable weekend, Big Tattoo Burn-Up is the place to be.
Join us in Exeter for the very first Burn-Up – it’s going to be one wild weekend.
