Tiny Tattoos as Holiday Mementos? Kimpton Hotels Embrace the Idea
Kimpton Hotels and Tiny Zaps Collaborate for Unique Tattoo Pop-Ups
Kimpton Hotels and Tiny Zaps have joined forces to create an innovative travel experience for tattoo enthusiasts. The collaboration aims to add a passport stamp-like feature to travellers' memories, as each city-specific tattoo collection reflects the essence of its unique culture.
Sam Kelly, co-founder of Tiny Zaps, shared that people get tattoos to create and commemorate life experiences. This sentiment is at the heart of the collaboration, which offers a lifetime of memories for travellers.
The upcoming pop-up events will take place at five select Kimpton hotels in 2025. One confirmed location is the Kimpton Hotel Monaco in Washington DC, as of August 16, 2025. The New York collection will be inspired by the Theatre District, while the New Orleans collection will pay homage to Bourbon Street.
The overall pop-up series spans multiple dates and venues through 2025, with events occurring through summer 2025 and beyond. However, exact detailed dates and a full list of locations have not been explicitly specified in the available sources. For the most current and complete schedule, checking Kimpton's official channels or contacting the hotels directly is recommended.
This campaign, dubbed "Tattourism," brings a specialized tattoo collective to guests at select Kimpton hotels. The collaboration is aimed at travellers who collect tattoos, providing them with a unique and memorable way to mark their travels.
