Do I need to be an artist to participate?

Not at all! Our Cape Town music festival workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of how to hold a spray can, control pressure, and create clean lines. You’ll be amazed at what you can produce in just one session. It’s all about letting loose, having a 'lekker' time, and expressing yourself through street art.

Is the graffiti workshop safe?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including masks and gloves, to ensure everyone stays clean and safe. We use high-quality spray paint and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor festival areas. Our street art experts also provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a fun and worry-free experience for all festival-goers in the Mother City.

What should I wear to the workshop?

We recommend wearing 'old' clothes that you don't mind getting a little paint on. While we provide protective gear, graffiti can be a messy business! Comfortable shoes are a must, as you'll be on your feet while creating your masterpiece. Since Cape Town weather can be unpredictable, bringing a light jacket or sunscreen depending on the forecast is always a smart move for an outdoor festival setting.

What materials are provided in the experience?

Everything is included! We bring the spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective gear, masks, gloves, and the surfaces for painting (whether it’s a communal wall or individual canvases). You just need to bring your energy and creativity. We handle the entire setup and clean-up, so the festival organisers can focus on the music while we handle the art. 🎨

How many people can participate at once?

We are very flexible! We can host small groups or large-scale 'drop-in' sessions where hundreds of festival attendees can contribute to a massive mural throughout the day. For structured workshops, we usually recommend groups of 10-20 at a time to ensure everyone gets personal attention from our artists. Contact us to discuss the specific scale of your Cape Town event.

Do you offer workshops in other South African cities?

Absolutely! We love traveling across South Africa. While this page focuses on Cape Town, we also regularly host graffiti experiences in Johannesburg, Durban, Pretoria, and Port Elizabeth. Whether you are hosting a coastal bash or an inland festival, our team of professional artists is ready to bring the spray paint magic to your location. Just let us know where the party is!

How long does a typical festival session last?

The duration is completely up to you. For music festivals, we often run 'open-booth' styles that last the whole day, allowing people to spray for 15-20 minutes. Alternatively, we offer structured masterclasses that take about 1.5 to 3 hours for a deeper dive into techniques. We tailor the timing to fit the flow of your festival lineup perfectly.

Layering & shading: Our pros teach how to add depth, shadows, and highlights to make the artwork pop under the festival lights.

Local culture

Cape Town is world-renowned for its stunning street art, from the iconic murals of Woodstock to the politically charged pieces in District Six. The city's creative pulse is undeniable, making it the perfect backdrop for a graffiti experience. Our workshops tap into this local heritage, celebrating the "lekker" spirit of South African creativity. 🇿🇦

Fun Fact: Did you know that Woodstock, Cape Town, is considered one of the top street art destinations in the world? It features over 100 legal murals by local and international artists! When we bring our workshop to your festival, we bring a piece of that world-class street culture with us. 🎨

Pricing

Our festival graffiti experiences are as unique as the line-up on your stage! Prices typically range from R400 to R900 per person, depending on the number of participants, the duration of the event, and the amount of materials required.

Because every music festival in Cape Town has different needs—from massive collaborative murals to individual take-home canvases—we prefer to create a custom plan for you. No upfront payment required—you only pay after the workshop! 💸
