Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

Absolutely not! Our Montpellier street art workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners who have never held a spray can to seasoned doodlers. Our pro artists will guide you through the basics, starting with simple lines and shapes before moving on to more complex techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at what you've managed to create on the festival walls.

Is the paint safe and do you provide protective gear?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including professional masks with appropriate filters, disposable gloves, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas, and our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone starts spraying. We ensure a fun, controlled, and completely safe environment for creators of all ages.

What should I wear to the festival workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and old trainers that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can occasionally be a messy business! Since Montpellier is famously sunny, it's also a great idea to bring some sunglasses, a hat, and some sunscreen, as our festival workshops are typically held outdoors in the beautiful Mediterranean light.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

Our standard festival workshop sessions usually last between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, a demo of different techniques, individual practice, and the completion of a final group masterpiece. However, we can often adapt the timing to fit the specific schedule of the Montpellier street art event you are attending. Just let us know your timeframe!

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We love working with groups! Our workshops are perfect for large festival crowds. We can accommodate group sizes from small intimate circles of 5 people to massive festival activations with 100+ participants rotating through the spray zone. For very large events in Montpellier, we bring in multiple professional artists and set up extra 'canvases' or walls to ensure everyone gets plenty of spray time.

Do I have to pay in advance for the booking?

We understand that plans can change. One of the best things about booking with Graffitifun is that we don't require any payment upfront. You can book your spot or event, and payment is only handled after the workshop is complete. This gives you total peace of mind and flexibility, which is especially helpful when coordinating large groups or festival schedules in the South of France.

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

In the rare event of heavy rain in Montpellier, we have backup plans ready. We can often move the workshop to a sheltered or indoor area nearby, or use specialized indoor-safe spray markers and techniques. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we almost never cancel. If the weather is truly extreme, we'll work with you to reschedule for the next sunny Occitanie day.

Local culture

Montpellier is a Mediterranean gem where ancient history meets cutting-edge urban culture. From the legendary Quai du Verdanson—a legal graffiti canal that acts as an ever-changing open-air gallery—to the hidden murals tucked away in the narrow winding streets of the old town, the city is a playground for street artists. The local scene is fueled by the city's youthful energy and its world-renowned festivals that celebrate everything from contemporary dance to extreme sports.

Fun Fact: Montpellier is home to several "hidden" street art surprises, including trompe-l'œil murals that are so realistic they've been known to trick tourists into trying to walk through painted doorways! ✨

Our workshops tap into this local 'art de vivre,' giving you a chance to contribute to the creative spirit that makes Montpellier one of the most vibrant cities in the South of France. Whether we're setting up near the sunny Place de la Comédie or a local park, you'll feel the authentic vibe of the French street art movement.

Pricing

We believe professional street art experiences should be accessible to everyone. Our pricing for festival workshops in Montpellier is transparent and flexible:

Price Range: €30 - €65 per person

*Note: Final pricing depends on your specific group size, the duration of the workshop, and the amount of materials required.
