How long does the VIP graffiti experience usually last?

For our VIP experiences in Durban, we usually recommend allowing 2 to 3 hours. This gives you plenty of time to learn the technical aspects of spray painting, practice your 'handstyle,' and work on a high-quality masterpiece without feeling rushed. We move at your pace, ensuring you have enough time for photos, breaks, and expert guidance throughout the session.

Do I need to be an artist to enjoy this?

No prior artistic skill is needed! Our professional Durban street artists are experts at teaching beginners. We guide you through every step, from how to hold the can to advanced layering techniques. You'll be surprised at how quickly you can create something that looks professional. It's all about having fun and expressing yourself in a relaxed, supportive environment.

What safety gear do you provide during the workshop?

We prioritse your safety above all else. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. Our spray paints are professional-grade but used in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Your lead artist will provide a full safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry-free creative environment for everyone involved.

Can we choose our own theme or design?

Absolutely! Whether you want to create a piece with your name, a specific logo, or a tribute to Durban’s surf culture, we can tailor the session to your vision. During the booking process, just let us know your ideas. Our artists will prepare sketches or stencils to help bring your specific creative concept to life on the day.

Do I need to pay a deposit for my booking?

Unlike many other providers, we don't require upfront payments to secure your date. You can book your VIP experience today and handle the payment after the workshop is completed. This shows our commitment to 100% satisfaction—we’re confident you’ll have an amazing time and want to ensure everything is perfect before the final transaction.

What happens if it rains on the day of our workshop?

Weather in Durban can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. We have access to several covered 'all-weather' locations across the city. If the weather looks truly dire, we offer flexible rescheduling options or can move the event to a suitable indoor-friendly setup using low-odour water-based paints. Your experience will go ahead, rain or shine!

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of 'character' on. While we provide full protective overalls and gloves, spray paint mist can sometimes travel. Closed-toe shoes are a must for safety. We’ll handle the rest, including all the premium paints, caps, and surfaces you'll be working on.

What makes the VIP experience different from a standard workshop?

The VIP experience is designed for those who want a more premium, intimate, or high-end version of our standard workshop. This includes our most senior Durban artists as instructors, premium paint selections, a more central or exclusive location, and a focus on creating a higher-end final product. It’s perfect for special celebrations or those who want the 'rockstar' street art treatment.

Local culture

Durban is a melting pot of cultures, and its street art reflects exactly that. From the massive, colourful murals in the Station Drive Precinct to the hidden gems in Glenwood, the city's "Durbs" vibe is etched into its walls. Our VIP experiences often take inspiration from the Zulu heritage, the iconic shoreline, and the gritty, urban energy that makes this city unique in South Africa. We don't just paint; we celebrate the 'Lekker' lifestyle that only Durbanites truly understand.

🎨 Fun Fact: Durban is home to some of the largest legal graffiti walls in the country, and many of our local artists have gained international fame, blending traditional African motifs with modern aerosol art!

Whether you're visiting from Johannesburg or Cape Town, you’ll find that Durban’s street art scene has a warmth and rhythm all its own. Join us and become part of that story.

Pricing

Our VIP experiences are designed to be as unique as your art. Prices typically range from R400 to R900 per person, depending on your group size, specific location, and custom requirements.
