At Pahari Goat 1.0 and 2.0, Tenzin Tattoos and his team of five emerging artists brought a bold, edgy presence to the festival by hosting live tattoo sessions right on site. Specializing in designs inspired by Himalayan identity, spirituality, and rebellion, they tattooed attendees with custom artwork that blended traditional roots with the fearless spirit of India’s alternative youth culture.

This live tattoo activation added a raw, unforgettable layer to the Pahari Goat experience, turning the festival into not just a music and art event, but a space where personal stories, youth expression, and creative defiance come alive on skin. It perfectly reflected Pahari Goat’s mission to amplify underrepresented voices, push artistic boundaries, and showcase the rising wave of youth-driven alternative culture in the Himalayas and beyond.
