Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Most participants at our Sliven street art festival workshops have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, fun steps. We start with the basics of nozzle control and fading before moving onto lettering. You'll be amazed at how quickly you'll go from a blank canvas to a vibrant piece of street art under our guidance.

What safety gear do you provide during the event?

We take safety seriously while you're having fun. We provide high-quality FFP2 masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean and your lungs safe. All our spray paints are professional-grade but used in a controlled, well-ventilated outdoor festival environment. Our artists provide a full safety briefing before anyone grabs a can, ensuring a worry-free creative session for everyone involved.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of ‘artistic character’ on. While we provide full-body protective suits, spray paint can be unpredictable in the breeze. If you have long hair, it’s a good idea to tie it back. Basically, dress for an active, outdoor day at a festival and let us worry about providing the rest of the gear!

Is there an age limit for the festival workshops?

For our Sliven street art festival sessions, we generally welcome creative spirits aged 8 and up. Younger kids can participate with a bit of extra help from parents, using our water-based markers or smaller cans. It's a fantastic family activity where kids, teens, and adults can all collaborate on a massive wall or work on individual canvases side-by-side. It’s truly an all-ages celebration of creativity.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

Our standard festival workshops usually run between 1.5 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time for a proper introduction, technique practice, and the creation of a final masterpiece. However, because it's a festival setting, we can offer shortened 'taster' sessions of 30-45 minutes if you're looking to try it out quickly before heading to the next stage or performance in Sliven.

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

In Bulgaria, we generally need a sunny or cloudy day to work our magic. If there’s light drizzle, we can often work under gazebos or tents. However, in the case of heavy rain or high winds in Sliven, we usually try to move the workshop to a sheltered indoor area provided by the festival or reschedule. Safety and the quality of your art are our top priorities!

Do I need to bring my own spray cans or paint?

You don't need to bring anything except your enthusiasm! Graffitifun provides everything: a wide variety of spray paint colours, caps (nozzles), gloves, masks, protective suits, and the 'canvas' (whether that’s a professional stretch canvas or a designated festival wall). We also have sketching materials ready so you can plan your design before you start spraying. Just show up and get ready to create!

Step by step

Grab your gear: Once you arrive at our festival stand, we’ll suit you up in protective overalls, gloves, and a mask to keep you looking sharp and staying safe.
Intro to the cans: Our pro artists will explain the different types of nozzles (caps) and how they change the thickness of your lines.
First lines: You'll head to a practice board to get a feel for the pressure. It's all about the finger control—feel the flow!
Sketching the vision: We’ll help you sketch out your idea on paper or directly on the wall using light 'fantom' lines.
Colour blocking: Time to fill in your shapes. You'll learn how to blend colours smoothly to create those iconic street art gradients.
The outline: This is where the magic happens! Adding a crisp outline makes your graffiti pop and gives it that professional look.

Local culture

Sliven is famous for the 'Blue Stones' (Karandila), and the dramatic mountain backdrop provides the perfect inspiration for any artist. While the city is steeped in history, from its textile heritage to its revolutionary heroes, the modern youth scene is hungry for contemporary expression. Our workshops bridge that gap by bringing modern street art techniques to the local community. We love setting up near the Old Elm (Stariat Chinar), where the mix of ancient nature and fresh paint creates an incredible atmosphere.

Fun Fact: Sliven is known as one of the windiest cities in Bulgaria—the famous 'Bora' wind. This makes for a fun challenge during our workshops, as our artists teach you how to time your sprays perfectly with the breeze! 💨

Looking for graffiti vibes in other Bulgarian cities? We also host events in Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, and Burgas.
