On November 28th, 2009, Canberra's first ever MISS INK tattoo pageant took place at The Basement, Canberra, to a sell out crowd.



The crowd were treated to 3 rounds of pageantry; casual, swimwear and formal wear. Each entrant scored votes based on their tattoos, outfits and personality/oral presentation.

Judges voting on the night were Chris Cashmore and his wife Jenn from Tattoo Power in Lyneham, popular tattoo artist Chris Reid and MISS INK owner, Fallon. The judges votes determined 1st, 2nd and 3rd places, while the crowds votes determined who received the 'People's choice' award.

The crowd were also treated to 4 bands performances by Soma, Spoil, Friend or Enemy and Perpetual End with a special burlesque presentation by Miss Kitka's House Of Burlesque.

MISS INK 2009's entrants were as follows:
- Miss Sam
