What started as a creative gathering has grown into a respected, immersive experience for face and body artists from across the UK and beyond. Each year builds on the last evolving, refining, and pushing artistic boundaries. This year’s theme Urban Alchemy is about transformation: turning raw ideas, city energy, and personal expression into ART

✨ What to Expect

  • Inspiring live demos and guided creative sessions
