The Richmond Tattoo Art & Music Festival will be going on at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Midlothian throughout the weekend. 150+ tattoo artists, live music, games, food, and Best of VA tattoo competitions are just a few of the event highlights.

But wait — there’s a way to celebrate before the weekend commences. Organizers have created a Tattoo Festival Bar Takeover, going on today + tomorrow.

To participate, grab a passport at one of these restaurants, then sip on one of the specials.

Once you get five stamps on your passport punched, bring it to the festival ticket booth + you’ll earn a three day pass.

Check out our Instagram post to see us try one of JewFro’s Blood Orange cocktails.
