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

Absolutely! Our Rivera street art workshops are designed for absolute beginners. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering 'fats' and 'skinnies'. You don't need any previous drawing skills to create something you'll be proud of by the end of the festival day. It's all about having a go and enjoying the creative process.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks. We use professional-grade spray paint, and our instructors are trained to ensure a safe environment for everyone. Because Rivera can get quite warm, we also recommend staying hydrated and wearing comfortable clothes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint on—just in case!

How long does a typical street art session last?

Our standard festival sessions in Rivera usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives you plenty of time to learn the basic techniques, sketch your ideas, and complete a vibrant piece of street art. If you're looking for a more intensive experience, we can often tailor the timing to suit your group's schedule or the festival's specific timeline.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything! Your booking includes premium spray cans in a rainbow of colours, protective masks, gloves, and the surfaces we'll be painting on (such as canvases or designated festival walls). You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some old shoes. We handle the setup and the messy clean-up afterwards so you can focus entirely on the art.

Can you accommodate large festival crowds?

We are incredibly flexible with group sizes! Whether you are a small group of friends or a massive crowd at a public festival in Rivera, we can accommodate you. For very large events, we bring in a team of backup artists to ensure everyone gets hands-on time and personal guidance. No group is too big or too small for a Graffitifun experience.

How does the 'pay later' system work?

We believe in our service so much that we don't require upfront payments. You can book your Rivera workshop and pay after the session is complete. We focus on 100% satisfaction—if you've had a brilliant time and learned something new, that's what matters most to us. It’s a completely stress-free way to bring street art to your event.

What happens if it rains on the day?

While we love the sunshine of Rivera, we always have a plan B. If the weather doesn't play ball, we can often move the workshop to a covered area or use indoor-safe techniques if the venue allows. Our backup artist system also ensures that your event goes ahead even if there's an unexpected hiccup. We're committed to making your street art dreams a reality!

Local culture

Rivera is truly one of a kind—where else can you walk across a street and find yourself in another country? This unique "Frontera de la Paz" (Border of Peace) with Santana do Livramento gives the city a rhythmic, multicultural buzz that is just begging to be expressed through street art. While the city is famous for its duty-free shopping and the lush hills of the Cuchilla de Santana, the local creative scene is rapidly growing. Street art here isn't just about paint; it's about the fusion of Uruguayan and Brazilian influences.

Fun Fact: Did you know that the border between Rivera and Brazil is often just a plaza or a single line on the pavement? This open connection makes Rivera one of the most culturally fluid cities in South America—a perfect metaphor for the free-flowing lines of graffiti!

Bringing a street art festival to Rivera means tapping into that local energy. We love working in this part of Uruguay because the locals are incredibly welcoming and always up for trying something bold and new. Whether we're setting up near the Plaza Internacional or in a local school, the spirit of Rivera always shines through the paint.
