The Iron Gate is back in 2025 for its third powerful year!

After the overwhelming success of our last two conventions, we’re coming back stronger than ever – pushing boundaries, curating bold experiences, and championing creativity across every form.

Over the last year we have carefully hand-picked some of the world’s best and most respected international tattoo artists and are bringing them to Australian shores.

Whether you’re here to get tattooed by your favourite artist, discover new talent, shop independent labels, attend an art talk, or simply experience the vibe – Iron Gate is the convention to visit here in Sydney. We will be announcing more artists leading up to the event, so stay tuned! Australia, we’re bringing something special for Year of the Snake! This is the Iron Gate!
