Overview

She's inked everyone from Miley Cyrus to Post Malone, and she could adorn your skin with art next — for free, at a three-day tattoo event taking over the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre. Celeb tatt artist Lauren Winzer is hitting the River City for the Brissie leg of the Australian Tattoo Expo, which runs from Friday, June 9–Sunday, June 11. And yes, free tattoos are 100-percent on the agenda.

For the event, Winzer is teaming up with Bepanthen Tattoo aftercare ointment, which is where those tatts without spending a cent come in. She'll be busting out ink from a capsule collection — which includes sunrises, lavender, waves, ice cream cones and other options — and leaving you with a lasting memento. If you get one, you'll definitely always remember this event.

Of course, Winzer has plenty of company: more than 250 fellow tattoo artists will be showcasing their skills, and live performances by Sideshow Cabaret will backdrop all of that body art.

And if you're not up for getting a tatt yourself — for free or otherwise — you can chat to the country's top folks in the field, find out about different styles and genres, explore the world of body piercing and watch tatt competitions.
