Is the graffiti activity safe for festival attendees?

Absolutely! Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable overalls to keep everyone’s clothes clean. Our professional artists are also trained in crowd management and site safety, ensuring that the creative energy stays focused on the art. We use low-odour professional spray paint designed for outdoor use, making it a comfortable experience for spectators and participants alike in the Cartagena heat.

What kind of space do you need at the festival?

We are incredibly flexible. Whether you have a massive open-air plaza or a smaller dedicated activity zone near the food stalls, we can make it work. We bring our own mobile graffiti walls or can customise existing structures with the venue's permission. For food festivals in Cartagena, we usually recommend a central 'Creative Hub' where the mural can grow throughout the day, providing a visual anchor for the entire event.

Do guests need prior painting experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our artists use a 'sketch and fill' method that allows even the most artistically challenged person to pick up a spray can and contribute something beautiful. We provide the guidance, techniques, and final touch-ups to ensure the resulting mural looks professional and vibrant. It's all about the joy of trying something new while enjoying a tasty empanada!

How many people can participate at once?

Our sessions are highly scalable. We can run continuous 'walk-in' sessions where 10-20 people paint at a time, allowing hundreds of festival-goers to participate over the course of a day. Alternatively, we can host structured 30-minute mini-workshops for specific groups. We tailor the flow to match your festival’s foot traffic, ensuring that the graffiti wall is always a hive of activity without creating huge bottlenecks.

Do I need to pay upfront for the workshop?

We believe in flexibility and trust. You don't need to make an upfront payment to book your date with Graffitifun. We provide an invoice after the workshop is successfully completed. This gives you peace of mind while planning your large-scale food festival. Plus, we always have backup artists on standby, so you never have to worry about a cancellation ruining your event schedule. We're here to make things easy for you!

Can the graffiti be themed around our food festival?

Definitely! One of our most popular options for food festivals is to have our artists sketch a food-themed mural (think giant colorful tropical fruits or local dishes) that the public then helps to colour in. We can also incorporate your festival’s logo, specific hashtags, or brand colours into the design. It’s a fantastic way to create a collaborative masterpiece that represents the unique flavour of your specific Cartagena event.

Local culture

Cartagena is a city that breathes art, from the legendary murals of Getsemaní to the bright colours of the fruit sellers' dresses. Street art is part of the city's DNA, making it the perfect backdrop for a graffiti-themed food event. We draw inspiration from the Caribbean sun, the colonial architecture, and the local "Costeño" spirit to ensure our workshops feel authentically Cartagena.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Getsemaní neighbourhood was once a neglected area but was completely transformed by local and international street artists? It’s now one of the most photographed spots in South America! 📸

Pricing

Our festival entertainment packages are as varied as the food on offer! Pricing typically ranges from $100,000 to $250,000 COP per person, depending on the scale of the mural, the number of participants, and the duration of the event.

Because every festival is unique, we offer bespoke pricing to ensure you get the best value for your setup. 💸
