3. Free Tattoo Day
Saturday, June 18, 12:00pm-10:00pm
328 N. Cumberland St, Lebanon, TN
Lighthouse Tattoo
Lighthouse Tattoo Apprentice Corps will be hosting a day where tattoos are completely free. What’s the catch? Only that they ask that any tattoo performed that day can be done in less than two hours, so more people have the opportunity to get in. Here’s the particulars: they will begin handing out tickets at 11:30am and at 1:00pm and every hour after that, they will pass out more tickets. Tickets will be drawn to see who gets tattooed next. If someone wants a tattoo that will take more than two hours to complete, they will lose their spot and they will draw again. They will have contests of skill and strength in order for interested parties to earn more tickets and thus, increase their chances for winning.
