Do participants need previous art experience?

No experience is needed at all! Our professional artists are there to guide your festival-goers through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. We make sure everyone feels like a pro by the time they finish their first piece. It’s all about having a go, getting messy, and enjoying the creative rhythm of the music festival atmosphere.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for festival environments?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective ponchos to keep everyone safe and their festival outfits clean. Our spray paints are professional-grade but used in a controlled, outdoor environment. Our crew is also trained to manage groups safely in high-energy environments like a Lae music festival, ensuring a smooth and secure experience for every single attendee.

How many people can participate at once?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you want a single massive mural that evolves over the weekend or a 'tag and go' station where hundreds of people leave a small mark, we can scale to fit your needs. From small boutique gatherings to massive crowds at the Botanical Gardens, our team is equipped to handle the flow of a busy festival without any stress.

How long does a typical festival session last?

Typically, our festival activations run between 2 to 6 hours per day, depending on your schedule. We can set up for a one-day blast or a full weekend residency. We work around your headline acts and stage times to ensure we are creating the biggest impact when the crowds are at their peak. Just let us know your festival schedule, and we'll sync up!

What materials do you provide for the event?

We bring everything! This includes premium spray cans in a huge range of colours, various nozzle sizes for different effects, protective gear, and the 'canvas' itself—whether that’s a temporary wooden wall, a shipping container, or individual boards for people to take home. You just provide the space and the music, and Graffitifun handles the entire logistical setup and pack-down.

What happens if it rains during the event?

While we love the sun, we are prepared for Lae’s tropical climate! For outdoor festivals, we usually recommend a marquee or a covered area to keep the artists and participants dry. If the rain gets too heavy, we can pause and resume once the clouds clear. Our paints dry quickly, so a little bit of humidity won't stop the masterpieces from looking incredible!

Can we theme the graffiti to match our festival?

Absolutely! We love creating themed activations. If your music festival has a specific colour palette, a logo, or a message of peace and unity, we can pre-sketch the mural to align with your brand. This makes the final artwork a perfect souvenir for the festival’s social media pages and a great way to reinforce your event's unique identity.

The experience

Adding a graffiti workshop to your music festival isn't just about art; it's about creating an unforgettable memory for your attendees. Here is why it’s the ultimate festival 'add-on' in Lae:

Total Crowd Engagement: Don't just let them watch—let them create! It's the perfect way to keep the energy high between sets. 🎨
Epic Photo Ops: A massive graffiti wall is a natural magnet for selfies and social media tags, giving your festival instant viral potential. 📸
Expert Supervision: Our professional artists are pros at working with beginners, ensuring the final result looks world-class. 🏆
Versatile Setup: Indoors or outdoors, we can adapt to any festival layout, from side-stages to main-gate welcomes. 🔥
Stress-Free Planning: No upfront payment required and we have backup artists ready to go—your event is safe with us! 💪
Locally Rooted: We celebrate the culture of Papua New Guinea by blending modern street art with local vibes. 🎤

Step by step

Consultation & Vibe Check: We chat about your festival's scale, the music genre, and where the best spot for the graffiti zone is.
Design & Theme Prep: Our artists create a concept that matches your festival's branding or local Lae street culture.
Professional Setup: We arrive early to set up the walls, lay down protective flooring, and organise the rainbow of spray cans.
Artist Live Demo: To kick things off, our pros perform a live demo to show the festival crowd what’s possible with a spray can.
Hands-on Participation: Under our guidance, festival-goers grab a mask and start adding their own flair to the communal mural.
Refinement & Detailing: As the day progresses, our artists help sharpen the edges and add the 'wow' factor to the public's work.
The Grand Reveal: By the time the headliner hits the stage, you have a massive, completed piece of collaborative street art.
Pack Down & Clean Up: We handle the entire cleanup process, leaving your festival grounds exactly as we found them (minus the cool new art!).

Good to know

We’ve handled everything from small underground sessions to massive outdoor spectacles, so we know how to manage the logistics of a busy festival. Typically, our activations run between 2 and 6 hours. We provide all the professional gear: high-quality spray paint, protective gloves, masks, and coveralls. Safety is our middle name (well, actually it's Fun, but safety is a close second!), and our artists are experts at managing crowds to ensure everyone has a blast without any accidents. No matter the group size, we bring enough backup artists to keep the creative energy flowing without any queues!

Local culture

Lae isn’t just the 'Garden City'; it’s an industrial powerhouse with a grit and soul that perfectly suits the raw energy of street art. We draw inspiration from the vibrant colours of the local markets and the bold patterns of Morobean culture to ensure our graffiti fits the local landscape. Whether it's a nod to the majestic birds of paradise or the sharp lines of modern urban life, our workshops celebrate the unique spirit of the residents here. We love bringing this global art form to the local stage, blending international spray-can techniques with the undeniable rhythm of PNG music life.

Fun Fact: Did you know Lae is home to the Rainforest Habitat? We often take inspiration from the lush greenery of the Morobe province to pick our 'earthy' spray can palettes!
