Do I need any previous art experience to join the pop-up?

Absolutely! Most of our participants have never held a spray can before. Our professional Helsinki artists start with the basics, teaching you how to control the pressure, create clean lines, and build up layers. We provide a safe, supportive environment where the goal is to have fun and express yourself. You'll be amazed at the masterpiece you can create by the end of the session!

Is the spray paint safe and do you provide gear?

We take safety seriously! We provide high-quality FFP3 respirators, protective overalls, and gloves to keep your clothes and lungs clean. Modern spray paint is much safer than older formulas, but we still ensure every pop-up is held in a well-ventilated space or outdoors. Our instructors also give a full safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring a worry-free experience for everyone involved.

Where in Helsinki can the pop-up event be held?

We are totally flexible! We can set up our mobile graffiti walls at your office car park, a local park, a festival ground, or a rented event space in Helsinki. If you don't have a spot in mind, we can help suggest cool urban locations that fit the 'street art' vibe. Our pop-up setup is designed to be tidy and leave no trace behind once the event is over.

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

A standard pop-up workshop usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a quick history lesson, technique practice, and the creation of a final collaborative mural or individual canvases. If you're hosting a larger festival-style event where people 'drop in,' we can adjust the timing to keep the energy flowing all day long.

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

The Finnish weather can be unpredictable, but we've got you covered! If the forecast looks rainy, we can move the workshop under professional event tents or relocate to an indoor venue with proper ventilation. We monitor the weather closely leading up to your event to ensure that the creative vibes stay high, regardless of what the Helsinki sky is doing. No rain can stop our art!

Can we keep the artwork we create?

Yes! One of the best parts of our pop-up events is the 'Take Home' option. Depending on the package you choose, participants can paint on high-quality canvases or even items like tote bags and trucker caps. It makes for a fantastic, personalised souvenir of your Helsinki street art experience. For corporate events, we often create a large shared mural that can be displayed in your office.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

Our pop-up events are incredibly scalable. We can cater to small groups of 10 people for an intimate birthday vibe, or manage large-scale corporate brand activations with hundreds of participants rolling through throughout the day. Because we have a large team of backup artists in Finland, we can scale our staff and materials to match your group size perfectly, ensuring everyone gets hands-on time.

The experience

Why choose a graffiti pop-up for your Helsinki event? It's more than just painting; it's a high-octane experience that breaks down barriers and sparks genuine connection. Here’s why it works:

Total Flexibility: We come to you! Whether it's a rooftop in Kamppi or a warehouse in Vallila, our setup is 100% mobile. 🚚
Epic Content: Graffiti is incredibly visual. It’s perfect for social media, creating "wow" moments that people will want to share instantly. 📸
Pro Artists: Learn from the best. Our instructors are actual street artists who live and breathe this culture. 💪
No Risk, All Fun: With our "pay after" policy and backup artists, your event is in the safest hands in the industry. 🏆
Stress Relief: There is something deeply satisfying about the sound of a spray can. It's the ultimate creative release! 🔥

Step by step

Intro & Inspiration: We kick things off with a brief history of Helsinki's street art scene and a demonstration of basic spray techniques.
Safety First: Put on your protective overalls, gloves, and professional masks. We'll show you how to handle the cans safely.
Sketching the Concept: Use markers to outline your ideas on the wall or canvas. Our artists will help you refine your design.
First Strokes: Learn 'can control'—how to create thin lines, thick fills, and smooth gradients by adjusting your hand speed and distance.
Colour Exploration: Choose from a massive range of professional spray colours to bring your piece to life. It's time to get vibrant!
The Fill-In: Master the art of filling large areas evenly without drips (unless you want drips for that authentic 'street' look!).
Outline & Detail: Add the 'Power Line'—the final sharp outline that makes your graffiti pop and look professional.
The Big Reveal: We finish with a group photo in front of your masterpiece. It’s a great moment for the 'gram!
Tidy Up: We handle all the cleanup, leaving the site as clean as we found it, taking all empty cans and waste for recycling.

Good to know

Duration: Flexible sessions ranging from 90 minutes to a full-day 6-hour brand activation.
Group Sizes: We cater for small groups (10+) up to large-scale festival crowds of 500+.
What's Included: Professional spray paint, protective gear (suits, gloves, masks), mobile walls or canvases, and expert tuition.
Safety Training: Every session includes a comprehensive safety briefing and technique demo.
Sustainability: We use low-odour paints where possible and ensure all empty cans are recycled properly. 🌍

Creative collaboration during a graffiti company outing

Local culture

Helsinki is a city where Nordic minimalism meets gritty urban expression. From the famous legal walls in Suvilahti to the hidden gems in the Pasila street art district, the city is breathing new life through colour. Our pop-up events tap into this local 'Sisu'—that unique Finnish spirit of determination and bravery—by encouraging you to try something bold and new.

Fun Fact: Helsinki was once known for its "zero tolerance" policy towards graffiti in the late 90s, but today, it's one of the most street-art-friendly capitals in Europe, with the city actively commissioning murals to brighten up public spaces! 🇫🇮

When we set up a workshop here, we're not just painting walls; we're connecting with the creative pulse of a city that values both tradition and modern subcultures. Join us and become part of Helsinki's evolving visual story.
