Do I need any prior artistic experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most participants at our Hamburg street art festival workshops have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down the basics, from how to hold the can to mastering pressure control. We create a relaxed, supportive environment where you can learn at your own pace and feel confident making your very first masterpiece on the wall.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to get creative! This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, professional-grade masks, protective gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some old shoes you don't mind getting a little dusty—we'll handle all the technical gear.

Is the paint safe and what safety gear do you provide?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 respiratory masks to ensure you don't breathe in any fumes, along with protective gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated festival zones. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone starts spraying, ensuring a fun and hazard-free environment for all ages.

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

Hamburg's weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered! If we're expecting a light drizzle, we often work under gazebos or bridges. In the event of heavy rain or storms, we can move the workshop to a sheltered indoor location or reschedule to a time that suits you. We always have backup plans to ensure your street art experience isn't washed out.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard festival workshop sessions usually last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, sketching out designs, practicing techniques, and then completing a final piece. This timeframe is perfect for festival-goers who want a deep-dive creative experience without missing out on the other amazing musical and cultural acts the event has to offer.

Is this activity suitable for children and families?

We believe street art is for everyone! Our workshops are generally suitable for children aged 6 and up, as long as they can safely handle the spray cans. We use smaller cans for younger kids to make it easier for their hands. It’s a fantastic way for families to bond and for kids to express themselves in a way they aren't allowed to at school!

How does the payment process work?

We are totally transparent with our pricing—there are no hidden fees or upfront deposits required. You only pay after the workshop is completed and you're satisfied with the experience. Prices typically range from €30 to €65 per person, depending on the group size and the specific setup of the festival event. We always recommend getting a custom quote for the best rate.

Local culture

Hamburg isn't just a port city; it's a living, breathing canvas. From the politically charged murals in St. Pauli to the sleek, modern designs at the Lohmühlenpark legal walls, the city breathes creativity. Our workshops tap into this local spirit, often taking place near iconic spots like the Rote Flora or the trendy Karoviertel. We celebrate the "Macker" culture of the local scene while keeping it inclusive and accessible for everyone.

Fun Fact: Did you know Hamburg is home to one of Germany's oldest legal graffiti walls? The 'Gängeviertel' is a historic area that was saved from demolition by artists and remains a sanctuary for street art today!
