Flying in for the big show is Tribal Gear founder Bobby Ruiz, with badass graffiti master and street artist Huit of France, and notorious inkers Carlos Macias and California Ames. An exhibition of amazing pieces from The Lower Left Manila will also be setup to fill everyone in with the brands’ unique artistry.
Not to be missed is Dutdutan’s tattoo competitions which have always been the highlight of the show. A battle of creativity and skill, infamous inkers defy limits and showcase skin art at its finest. So if you’re looking to get inked up by the best of the best, then you’ll want to hit up Dutdutan 23.
Always been and always will be a huge hit at Dutdutan, Tribal’s Bikini Contest returns with a vengeance – only sexier, kinkier and wilder! Leaving almost nothing to the imagination, competition will surely be fierce.
Giving a leg up for music inclusivity, an intensely electric show awaits Dutdutan 23’s massive crowd regulars on both nights. Audiences are in for a treat as renegade band (hed) PE, a.k.a. Planet Earth shoots everyone with a dose of “G-punk”, a fusion of punk rock and Gangsta rap. See them perform some of their best, most mosh-worthy tracks.
A livewire roster of music icons will be performing, including Greyhounds, Wilabaliw, and Urbandub. Also taking the spotlight are performances by word blacksmith and true poet Gloc-9, groundbreakers and master storytellers Flow G and Skusta Clee.
A raving festival of ink and music in a full-on urban lifestyle experience – all these and more at this year’s Dutdutan 23!
