Friday the 13th Events: Next one is June 13th, 2025!

The Friday the 13th tattoo tradition, now a popular "holiday" for tattoo shops and enthusiasts, started in the 1990s when tattoo artist Oliver Peck, co-owner of Elm Street Tattoo in Dallas, began a 24-hour marathon of tattooing the number "13" on people, inspired by sailors who saw it as a charm against bad luck - USA Today

Whether you want to fill a gap in your sleeve, like collecting small flash designs, want to join in on the experience, or just want some ink but have a tight budget - this day is for you.

Friday the 13th is like the "Black Friday of the tattoo world." Traditionally, we have done $13 tattoos, with a lucky $7 tip. With expenses rising with the economy, we are still discussing options to maintain that cost and keep this tradition alive - as it's been a popular event for us ever since the River City tattoo days.
