Plan Your Stay

Staying with AATC

Make the most of your convention weekend. Here is where to stay, where to eat, and what to know before you arrive.

Where to Stay

Fayetteville is a military town, which means hotel group rates aren't the bargain they are in most convention cities - the local market is already priced for constant government and military travel. For that reason we don't negotiate a room block.

We'd suggest looking at Airbnb or Expedia for your stay in the Fayetteville / Fort Bragg area this April.

Tips for the Weekend

Everything you need to know before you arrive

What to Bring

Valid photo ID (required for alcohol service and age verification)
Cash and cards - most artists and vendors accept both
Reference photos if you plan to get tattooed
Comfortable clothing that allows access to the area being tattooed
A light jacket - convention halls can be cool

Dress Code

There is no formal dress code - wear what makes you comfortable
Wear clothing you do not mind getting ink on if you are getting tattooed
Comfortable shoes are highly recommended - there is a lot to see and the venue is large
Show off your existing ink with pride
Entering a tattoo contest? Wear something that lets you show the tattoo easily. Judges need clear access to the piece, and you don't want to be wrestling with a sleeve at the judging table.
