Is it safe to have spray paint near a food festival?

Absolutely! We use high-quality, low-odour water-based spray paints for our food festival workshops. These are much friendlier for public spaces and dining environments than traditional solvent-based paints. We also provide all necessary protective gear, including gloves and aprons, to ensure your clothes stay as clean as your plate. Our artists manage the 'spray zone' strictly to keep the creative energy high and the mess low.

What kind of space do you need at the festival?

We are incredibly flexible with our setup in Basel. Whether you want a large-scale mural created over the weekend or a 'plug-and-play' station where guests can tag their own takeaway boxes or canvases, we can make it happen. We typically bring our own mobile walls or canvases, so we don't need to touch the venue's architecture. Just give us a flat surface, and we’ll handle the rest!

Do guests need any prior artistic skills?

No experience is needed at all! Our professional graffiti artists are experts at guiding complete beginners. We break down the process into simple steps—from holding the can correctly to mastering 'fading' and 'outlining' techniques. It’s all about having fun and being expressive. We guarantee that every participant, regardless of their artistic background, will walk away feeling like a street art pro.

Is this activity suitable for children and families?

The beauty of graffiti is that it’s for everyone. At food festivals, we see a huge mix of people—from toddlers making their first colourful marks to grandparents giving street art a try for the first time. For younger children, we provide closer supervision and smaller cans that are easier for little hands to operate. It’s a fantastic way to bridge the generation gap through shared creativity.

What happens if it rains during the outdoor festival?

While our artists are rarely deterred by a bit of Swiss drizzle, we do recommend a covered area or a marquee for the best experience. If the weather turns truly nasty, we have backup plans and can often move the activation indoors using our specialised low-odour paints. Don't worry about cancellations; we have a team of backup artists ready to go so your event never misses a beat.

How do the payment and booking process work?

We believe in a 'fun first' policy! Because we don't require upfront payments, you have total peace of mind when booking. You pay only after the workshop is completed or according to the agreed event terms. We also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If your festival-goers aren't buzzing with excitement about the street art experience, we haven't done our job properly. Professionalism and fun are our core values.
