Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Not at all! Our Johannesburg music festival workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional street artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering 'fat caps' and 'skinny caps.' We provide all the tips and tricks you need to create something you'll be proud of, ensuring everyone feels like a pro by the end of the set.

Is the graffiti workshop safe and what gear is provided?

Safety is our top priority while you're having fun. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective ponchos to keep your festival outfit clean. We use low-pressure spray paint which is easier to control and much safer for beginners. Our artists are also trained in site safety to ensure the workshop area remains a secure environment for all festival-goers.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

Most of our festival sessions last between 45 minutes to 90 minutes, depending on the specific event setup. This is the 'sweet spot' that allows you to complete a piece without missing your favourite headliner's set! We also offer 'drop-in' style stations where you can contribute to a massive community mural for just a few minutes at a time.

Do we have to pay everything upfront?

We are one of the few providers that offers a 'book now, pay later' policy for large events. For music festivals in Jozi, we typically settle the final invoice after the event is successfully completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the vibe and the quality we delivered before any funds change hands. Contact us for specific B2B festival terms.

What happens if it rains during the festival?

Johannesburg weather can be unpredictable, but the party must go on! If the festival is outdoors, we usually set up under high-quality gazebos or stretch tents to keep the artists and the art dry. If the weather becomes a safety hazard, we have backup artists and flexible scheduling to ensure the workshop still happens once the clouds clear.

Can we take our artwork home with us?

Absolutely! While we love doing large-scale community walls, we can also set up individual canvas stations. This allows festival-goers to take their own piece of Johannesburg street art home as a unique souvenir. We also offer brand activation options where participants can spray-paint festival merchandise like tote bags or caps.

Do you offer workshops in other South African cities?

Yes! We love traveling across Mzansi. Besides Jozi, we are fully active in Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, and Port Elizabeth. If your festival is touring multiple cities, we can provide a consistent graffiti experience across every leg of the tour with our national network of professional artists.

The experience

Why settle for just music when you can create a visual explosion? Adding a graffiti workshop to your Johannesburg festival isn't just an activity—it's a memory-maker that bridges the gap between the stage and the fans. ✨

Ultimate engagement: Give your fans something to do between sets that isn't just standing in a bar queue.
Social media magnet: Let's be real—everyone wants that 'grammable' photo with a spray can in hand.
Authentic Jozi vibes: Nothing says Johannesburg like raw, colourful street art.
Professional edge: Our artists are the best in the business, ensuring high-quality results every time.
Zero stress: We handle everything from setup to cleanup, so you can focus on the music.
Inclusive fun: Age, skill level, or background doesn't matter; once the cap clicks, everyone is an artist. 🏆

Step by step

The safety briefing: Grab your protective gear! We start by getting you suited up in ponchos, gloves, and masks to keep the paint on the canvas and off your clothes.
Spray can basics: Learn the 'anatomy' of a spray can. Our Jozi artists show you how to swap nozzles and control pressure for different effects.
Line work practice: Start with the basics. You'll practice drawing straight lines, dots, and circles on a practice wall to get a feel for the flow.
Sketching the concept: Whether it's a piece of the festival's theme or your own tag, we help you sketch the outline of your masterpiece.
Filling in the colour: This is where the magic happens! Choose from a massive range of vibrant colours to fill in your design with bold strokes.
Adding the 'pop': Learn professional techniques like fading, shading, and highlighting to give your art a 3D look that stands out.
The outline (The 'Powerline'): Use a high-contrast colour to sharpen those edges and make the whole piece look crisp and professional.
Final signatures: No piece is complete without your tag. Add your signature and take a photo with your crew in front of your work.
Show and tell: Leave your mark on the festival grounds or take your canvas to the main stage to show the crowd what you've created!

Local culture

Johannesburg is the undisputed street art capital of South Africa. From the towering murals of Newtown to the legendary graffiti alleys of Maboneng, the 'City of Gold' has a pulse that beats through a spray can. Our workshops tap into this rich local culture, celebrating the grit and creativity that makes Jozi unique. We don't just teach art; we share a piece of the city's soul.

Fun Fact: Did you know that Johannesburg is home to some of the largest street art murals in the Southern Hemisphere? The city’s urban renewal projects have turned entire skyscrapers into canvases for local and international legends! 🎨
