Welcome to the historic Tattoo CitY

Founded by legendary tattooer and artist Don Ed Hardy, the first incarnation of Tattoo City opened its doors in 1977. We continue to uphold the same standards of excellence and trend-setting qualities that have characterized Ed Hardy’s career. With our fresh interpretations of world art traditions, we offer work that is truly “Way out but classic”.
