ABOUT US

Founded in 2018 by Paul David, the Norcal Tattoo Expo is a premier annual event celebrating the artistry and culture of tattooing. With six successful events to date, the expo has become a staple in the Northern California tattoo community—except for 2020, when the event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Paul, a Redding native and owner of The Marketing Harbor and the Shasta Business Network, has been collecting tattoos for over 20 years.  In partnership with his high school friend and accomplished tattoo artist Curt Baer, the owner of Iron Mountain Tattoo, the Norcal Tattoo Expo brings together top-tier talent from across the country. Curt, who did some of Paul’s first tattoos, now serves as the host of the event and is a sought-after artist at conventions worldwide.
