A true Ibiza institution, Inkadelic is the most established and revered tattoo parlour on the island of Ibiza. The shop is widely regarded among aficionados who fly from all over Europe just to have work done by Neil Ahern and his colleagues, “spending serious money and serious time – we only do custom work.” To celebrate their 10 long years of artistry we’ve handed over control of El Salon on Sunday August 29th to Neil and his cohorts, they’ve invited DJs Luca C & Brigante, DJ Blue (Hunk Papa), Jon-Jak and Samir to man the decks for this night of festivities. Special guest DJ Blue aka Hunk Papa is a founding member of the UK B-Boy Championships, expect a specially prepared set of zulu-dub and liquid-reggae. There will also be live tattooing taking place in the room – let’s get inspired!

Although our trusty booker (and Inkadelic patron)
Mark says “it hurts when you go to see him”, Neil is a nice guy really. Check his email address on the flyer above for guest list enquiries or why not just visit Plaza del Mercado Viejo and experience the shop (below) for yourself. If you are thinking of getting a tattoo Neil has some
good advice for you: “The people should be going in asking constructive intelligent questions and see what the tattooist is gonna do for them. It’s quite easy to see, go into a shop, see how the shop is. You can see if someone’s into something or not. You feel it, hear it. This place here is like a museum, a shrine to tattooing – it’s a big part of my life.”
Yes, that's Naomi Campbell
