Is live painting suitable for indoor events in Tauranga?

Absolutely! We use high-quality, low-odour professional spray paints, and if your event is indoors, we can use water-based acrylic markers or eco-friendly cans. We also provide floor protection and ventilation advice to ensure the Tauranga venue remains spotless while the art comes to life. Safety and cleanliness are just as important to us as the final masterpiece.

How long does a typical live painting session last?

Most live painting performances in the Bay of Plenty last between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the scale of the canvas or wall. We work with your event schedule to ensure the 'big reveal' happens at the perfect moment, whether that’s during a gala dinner climax or throughout a day-long festival at the Waterfront.

Do we get to keep the artwork after the event?

Yes, that’s the best part! The final artwork belongs to you. Many of our Tauranga clients choose to hang the finished canvas in their office lobby, auction it off for charity, or give it away as a grand prize. It’s a lasting memento of an incredible Bay of Plenty event.

Can the artist include our company logo or a specific theme?

We are totally flexible! Our artists can incorporate your brand colours, specific logos, or even a theme related to Tauranga’s coastal lifestyle. Just let us know your vision during the booking process, and we’ll create a custom sketch that aligns perfectly with your brand activation or celebration goals.

What materials do you provide for the performance?

We come fully prepared! Graffitifun provides the professional artist, all premium spray paints, protective floor coverings, and the canvas or mobile wall. Typically, all we need from you is a flat space to work and some decent lighting so the crowd can see the magic happen. We handle the setup and the cleanup.

What happens if the artist can't make it to the event?

Life happens, which is why we have a solid team of backup artists ready to step in. If your assigned artist is unexpectedly unavailable, we guarantee a professional replacement so your Tauranga event goes off without a hitch. You can book with total peace of mind knowing we’ve got you covered.

Local culture

Tauranga is a city that breathes creativity, from the stunning murals in the CBD to the surf-inspired street art around Mount Maunganui. We love tapping into that local Tauranga energy, often incorporating coastal elements, kowhaiwhai patterns, or modern urban grit into our live performances. The Bay of Plenty has a rich history of public art, and bringing a live painting session to your event keeps that tradition alive in a fresh, temporary, and exciting way. ✨

Fun Fact: Tauranga is home to the 'Paradox' street art festival, which helped cement the city as a major hub for urban art in New Zealand. Our artists live and breathe this culture! 🎨
