How long does a typical graffiti pop-up event last?

Most of our pop-up sessions in Galway last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the basics of spray painting, practice some techniques, and complete a final masterpiece. If you are hosting a larger public event where people drop in and out, we can adjust the format to keep things moving quickly so everyone gets a turn with the cans!

Can we host the pop-up event indoors?

Absolutely! While we love taking over outdoor spaces in the Latin Quarter or Salthill, we can definitely work indoors too. We use special low-odour, water-based spray paint and provide plenty of floor and wall protection. As long as the venue has decent ventilation, we can bring the urban street art vibe inside without any mess or lingering smells.

Do I need any prior art experience to participate?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone from total beginners to seasoned craic-havers. Our professional artists will guide you through everything, from how to hold the can to advanced shading techniques. You will be surprised at how quickly you can create something that looks professional. It is all about having fun and expressing yourself in a relaxed environment.

What safety equipment do you provide?

We take safety seriously. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP2 face masks, protective gloves, and hoodies/overalls to keep your clothes clean. Our instructors are experienced pros who manage the 'spray zone' to ensure everyone stays safe. Before we start, we always give a quick safety briefing so the only thing you have to worry about is your creativity.

What is the minimum or maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible! Whether you are planning a small gathering of 10 people or a massive public festival in Eyre Square, we can scale our team and materials to fit. For very large groups, we usually set up multiple 'stations' or use a large communal wall so that everyone gets a chance to contribute to the artwork without waiting around.

Do I need to pay upfront for the booking?

No way! We believe in keeping things stress-free. You do not have to pay anything upfront when you book your Galway event. You can settle the bill after the workshop once you have seen the amazing results and everyone has had a brilliant time. It is part of our 100% satisfaction guarantee—we want you to be completely happy with the experience.

What happens if it rains on the day of the event?

If the weather turns typical for the West of Ireland, we have you covered. We often use gazebos or temporary shelters for outdoor events. However, we always recommend having a backup indoor space just in case the Atlantic breeze gets a bit too wild! If we really can't go ahead due to extreme weather, we are happy to reschedule for a better day.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti pop-up for your next Galway gig? It’s more than just painting; it’s an ice-breaker, a stress-reliever, and a serious confidence booster all rolled into one. Here is why we are the best choice for your Irish event:

Expert guidance: Learn from real-deal street artists who live and breathe this culture. 🎨
Total flexibility: We come to you—whether it's a hotel car park, a community hall, or a backyard.
Stress-free booking: No deposit needed. We trust our clients and we’re confident you’ll love the vibe. 💪
Zero mess: Our pro setup includes full floor and wall protection, leaving the site exactly as we found it.
Epic memories: Participants don't just watch; they create something they can be proud of. ✨

Step by step

The meetup: Our crew arrives at your chosen Galway location with all the gear, from cans to canvases.
Safety first: We suit everyone up in protective gear and give a quick rundown on how to use the equipment safely.
Can control: Learn the 'anatomy' of a spray can—how pressure, distance, and angle change your lines.
Drafting the dream: Sketch out your ideas on the wall or canvas using light 'ghost' lines.
Filling & fading: Master the art of the fill-in and learn how to blend colours like a pro.
The outline: This is where the magic happens! Adding that sharp 'power line' to make the art pop.
Details & flares: Add highlights, shines, and your unique tag to claim your masterpiece.
Group photo: We wrap up by capturing the final artwork and the squad before we handle the cleanup.

Local culture

Galway isn't called the "Cultural Heart of Ireland" for nothing. From the buskers on Shop Street to the murals tucked away in the West End, this city breathes art. Our pop-up events fit perfectly into the local scene, mirroring the spontaneous and inclusive nature of the Galway International Arts Festival. We love the "Atlantic Edge" energy here—it’s raw, it’s colourful, and it’s always up for a bit of craic.

Fun fact: Did you know Galway was a UNESCO City of Film? We like to think our graffiti workshops are just as cinematic—transforming blank walls into technicolour scenes worthy of the big screen! 🎬

Pricing

Investment in creativity

Our Galway pop-up experiences generally range from €30 to €60 per person.
