Adrenaline Studios Granville is the downtown Vancouver shop of the Adrenaline brand, at 1014 Granville St. in the Granville entertainment strip, close to public transit. The location does tattoos, body piercing and body jewelry, and is open late: until 10 PM Sunday to Thursday and until midnight on Friday and Saturday.
The shop takes both booked appointments and walk-ins. Walk-in slots usually suit small, non-custom pieces; custom work starts with a consultation visit with the chosen artist. The studio publishes its prices: artists average about CA$200 per hour on larger work, with a CA$100 minimum, and small pieces are priced individually.
Adrenaline describes itself as a Canadian family business. The brand was established in 1998 (it began in New Jersey) and today runs three studios in Vancouver (Granville, Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant) plus one in Montreal. This profile covers the Granville location only.
The resident Granville team of five covers traditional and neo-traditional, colour and black-and-grey realism, Japanese, blackwork, script and lettering, and lowbrow work.
