Got ink? Every February, the Body Art Expo at the Arizona State Fairgrounds in Phoenix showcases the work of many of the best tattoo artists in the Southwest.

More than 200 tattoo and body mod artists are featured at the touring event’s stop in the Valley, which offers the chance to get inked or pierced. There are also various tattoo contests throughout the three-day event.

One of the attractions of the Body Art Expo is the chance to see all the impressive tattoos adorning attendees and artists alike. Over the years, Phoenix New Times has encountered amazing and astounding pieces inspired by pop culture, the Day of the Dead and other subject matter.

In honor of the 2024 edition of the Body Art Expo, which runs from Feb. 16 to 18 at the Arizona State Fairgrounds, here’s a look back at the best tattoos and coolest ink we’ve seen at the event over the years.
