Slipknot’s Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan said about the festival, “Slipknot is playing very few shows in the U.S. this year, so this will be special. It will be good to be back with our friends, family, and culture at the Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival. Stay safe! Stay (sic)!”
In addition to the music, over 100 tattoo artists will be present, and festival-goers can take self-guided tours of the Shawshank Redemption prison.
Tickets for three-day passes and single-day entry are now available.
