Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Our graffiti workshops in Rio de Janeiro are designed for everyone, from complete beginners who have never touched a spray can to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, starting with basic safety and nozzle control. You will be amazed at how quickly you can create something impressive under our expert guidance. It is all about having fun and expressing your unique personality.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need for a fantastic creative session. This includes high-quality spray paint in a vibrant array of colours, various nozzle types for different spray effects, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the surface you will be painting on, whether it is a shared mural wall or individual canvases. Just bring your energy and a pair of comfortable shoes!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control and provide high-quality protective gear, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks to ensure you are not inhaling fumes. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor spaces or large indoor areas with proper airflow. Our instructors are also trained to manage groups safely, ensuring a secure environment for all participants.

What happens if it rains on the day of the event?

Rio de Janeiro's weather can be unpredictable, but we have you covered. For our cultural workshops, we always have a Plan B. This usually involves moving the session to a covered outdoor area or an indoor studio space. If the weather is truly extreme, we offer flexible rescheduling options. We have backup artists available too, so your event will go ahead rain or shine!

How long does a typical workshop last?碎

A standard cultural graffiti experience usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of street art, a demonstration of techniques, plenty of practice time, and the creation of your final masterpiece. If you are looking for a more intensive Masterclass or a shorter teaser session as part of a larger festival, we can certainly customise the duration.

Do I need to pay in advance?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'play now, pay later' philosophy. You do not need to make an upfront payment to book your date. We believe in the quality of our service, so you only pay once the workshop is completed. This makes the booking process stress-free and gives you total peace of mind when planning your event in Rio.

Do you offer workshops for different group types?

Yes, we love making graffiti accessible to everyone! We offer special packages for schools, kids' parties, and large-scale festivals. We also cater to bachelor parties and corporate brand activations. Whether you are a group of 5 or 500, we can scale our workshop to fit your needs.

Local culture

Rio de Janeiro isn't just about Samba and football; it's a global powerhouse for street art. The city's unique geography—where lush mountains meet urban concrete—provides a dramatic backdrop for graffiti. From the world-famous Etnias mural by Kobra in the Olympic Boulevard to the hidden gems in Santa Teresa, Rio breathes creativity. Our workshops tap into this 'Carioca' spirit, blending tropical vibes with gritty urban expression. 🔥

Fun Fact: Did you know that graffiti was decriminalised in Brazil in 2009? This legal 'green light' transformed Rio into one of the most mural-dense cities on the planet, making it a paradise for street artists worldwide!
