Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Our graffiti workshop experience at Cartagena music festivals is designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our pro artists guide you through every step, starting with basic spray techniques and safety. You don't need to be 'artistic' to have a blast; it's all about the energy, the music, and expressing yourself in the moment. You'll be amazed at what you can create with a little guidance.

What materials are included in the festival workshop?

We provide everything you need to get creative! This includes a wide range of premium spray paint colours, high-quality masks, gloves, and protective ponchos to keep your festival gear clean. We also provide the 'canvas'—which could be a massive communal wall or individual boards depending on the festival setup. Just bring your energy and perhaps some sunglasses to look the part while you paint!

Is the spray paint safe to use in a crowded festival?

Safety is our top priority. We use high-quality, low-odour spray paints whenever possible and provide all necessary protective equipment, including FFP2 or FFP3 masks and gloves. Our instructors are professional artists who manage the 'spray zone' to ensure a safe distance between participants. We also ensure the workshop area is well-ventilated, making it a safe and enjoyable environment for festival-goers of all ages.

Should I wear specific clothing for the graffiti workshop?

Definitely. While we provide protective ponchos, we always recommend wearing clothes you don't mind getting a tiny bit of 'art' on. Spray paint is permanent, and while we take every precaution to keep you clean, festivals can be unpredictable! For the best experience, wear comfortable shoes and leave your most expensive designer gear at the hotel for the duration of the workshop.

How long does a typical festival graffiti session last?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you want a quick 20-minute 'drop-in' session between bands or a full 2-hour deep dive into street art techniques, we can tailor the workshop structure to fit the festival's schedule. For large music festivals in Cartagena, we usually run continuous 'walk-in' sessions so that as many people as possible get a chance to pick up a spray can.

Do we have to pay for the workshop in advance?

No deposit is needed! We operate on a 'pay after' basis because we believe in the quality of our experience. For large-scale festival bookings, we discuss the logistics and staffing requirements upfront and provide a clear, transparent quote. You only pay once the festival is live and the creative magic is happening. It’s part of our 100% satisfaction guarantee to ensure you're totally happy.

The experience

Why settle for just listening to the music when you can become part of the art? Our graffiti workshops at festivals offer a unique break from the mosh pit. Here is why it's a must-do:

Unleash your creativity: Express yourself in a way that words (and dancing) can't! 🎤
Pro Guidance: Learn from the best graffiti artists in Colombia who live and breathe this culture.
Inclusive Fun: Absolutely no experience is needed—we make sure everyone leaves with a smile.
Unforgettable Memories: Create the ultimate festival souvenir and a killer backdrop for photos.
Zero Stress: No upfront payment and a 100% fun guarantee mean you can focus on the music. 🔥
Eco-Conscious Options: We use high-quality materials and ensure a clean, safe environment for the festival grounds.

Step by step

The warm-up: Meet your pro artist coach and get a quick intro to the history of Cartagena's vibrant street art.
Safety first: Suit up in your protective gear, including masks and gloves, to keep the vibes high and the mess low.
Master the can: Learn the 'can-control' basics—distancing, pressure, and nozzle types for different lines.
Sketching the vibe: Use chalk or light spray to outline your design, inspired by the festival's rhythm and music.
Filling the colour: Start layering your colours. This is where your piece truly starts to pop against the Caribbean sky!
Sharp outlines: Use black or white to define your edges and give your graffiti that professional, crisp look.
The finishing touches: Add highlights, flares, or 'bubbles' to make your artwork stand out from the crowd.
The photoshoot: Strike a pose with your masterpiece! This is the perfect Instagram moment before you head back to the main stage.

Good to know

Duration: Flexible sessions from 30 minutes to 3 hours to suit the festival flow.
Group Sizes: We can handle everything from small VIP groups to massive festival-wide crowds.
Included: Premium spray cans, protective masks, gloves, ponchos, and professional artist guidance.
Safety: Full health and safety briefing provided; FFP2 masks are mandatory during spraying.
Backup: We always have backup artists ready to go, so the show always goes on! 🏆

Local culture

Cartagena isn't just a city of colonial architecture; it’s a living canvas. From the famous murals of Getsemani to the hidden gems in the Bazurto market area, street art is the heartbeat of this coastal paradise. By bringing a graffiti workshop to a Cartagena music festival, we’re tapping into a long tradition of Caribbean expression. The local 'Champeta' culture and the bright, tropical colours of the city provide the perfect inspiration for your artwork. ✨

Fun Fact: In Cartagena, graffiti was once used as a form of social protest and storytelling in the Getsemani district, which has now transformed into one of the world's most famous open-air street art galleries! 🇨🇴
