What should I wear to a graffiti workshop at a music festival?

While we provide premium protective gear, it is always a good idea to wear clothes you don't mind getting a little 'colourful'. Spray paint is permanent on fabric! We suggest comfortable shoes as you will be standing and moving around the mural area throughout the session. If the music festival is outdoors in Lubumbashi, remember to wear breathable fabrics that keep you cool while you work.

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most festival-goers have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are there to guide you through every step, from basic nozzle control to advanced shading techniques. We focus on making the experience fun and accessible, ensuring that even total beginners walk away having created something they are proud of. It is all about the vibe and the music!

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respirators or masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep you safe from fumes and paint. All our sprays are used in well-ventilated outdoor areas at the festival site. Our instructors are trained to manage groups safely in a busy festival environment, ensuring everyone has a great time without any risks to their health or the environment.

Can we book a workshop for a large group of friends?

We love the energy of festival crowds! While we can accommodate large groups through our 'walk-in' mural style, we recommend booking a dedicated slot if you have a specific group of friends. For festival organisers, we can scale our setup to handle hundreds of participants over a weekend. If you are a solo festival-goer, just jump in and join the creative flow with others!

What happens if it rains during the music festival?

In the rare event of a heavy downpour in Lubumbashi, we usually pause the workshop or move to a covered festival area. Most of our setups include gazebos or tents to keep the artists and the art dry. One of the best things about Graffitifun is our backup artist policy — we always have professionals on standby to ensure your festival activation goes ahead no matter what.

How does the 'pay later' system work?

We believe in the quality of our experience! You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your festival slot. We offer a 100% satisfaction focus, meaning we want you to be totally hyped about the experience before we settle the billing. Once the festival vibes are flowing and the paint is dry, we handle the payment through various easy local methods.

Can we take the artwork home after the festival?

Yes! When we set up at a music festival, we often create a massive collective mural that stays on display for the duration of the event. It becomes a fantastic backdrop for photos and a living piece of festival history. Participants can also work on individual canvases or boards that they can take home once the paint is dry — a perfect, handmade souvenir of your time in Lubumbashi.
