Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely not! Our Tokyo street art festival workshops are designed for everyone, from total beginners to seasoned creatives. Our professional artists will guide you through the basics of spray can control, cap selection, and layering techniques. You’ll be surprised at how quickly you can create something impressive under our expert guidance. It's all about having fun and expressing your personality through vibrant colors and bold lines!

Is the workshop experience safe for children and beginners?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all necessary protective gear, including high-quality masks, gloves, and protective suits to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paint in well-ventilated outdoor festival settings. Our instructors are trained to ensure a safe environment for everyone, and we always have a first-aid kit on hand, though we focus on making sure the only thing 'dangerous' is how cool your art looks!

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

For our festival-style workshops in Tokyo, we recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little paint on (just in case!). While we provide protective overalls, spray paint can be unpredictable. Since most festivals are outdoors, please check the Tokyo weather forecast and dress accordingly—sunscreen for those bright Shibuya days or a warm jacket if we're painting in the cooler evening breeze!

What materials are included in the festival experience?

Everything you need is included! We provide a wide array of premium spray cans in every color of the rainbow, various specialized nozzles (caps) for different effects, protective gear, and the 'canvas'—whether that's a professional wall setup or individual boards. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and perhaps some inspiration from the incredible street art scenes found throughout Tokyo's diverse neighborhoods.

How long does a typical workshop session last?

A standard festival workshop session usually lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of street art, practice basic techniques on a practice wall, and then dive into creating your final masterpiece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' for keeping energy high and creativity flowing without feeling rushed. However, for larger festival events, we can adapt the timing to fit the schedule.

How do I pay and do I need to pay in advance?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexibility. You don't need to pay anything upfront! You can book your spot or schedule your festival event and pay after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the experience before any transaction. We accept various payment methods for your convenience. Simply reach out to us to secure your date and time in the Tokyo calendar!

Can you handle large groups for major Tokyo festivals?

If you're organizing a large-scale festival in Tokyo or a surrounding city like Yokohama, we've got you covered. We have a deep roster of backup artists to ensure that your event goes off without a hitch, even if someone falls ill. We can handle groups of almost any size by scaling up our artist team and equipment. Contact us for a custom quote to see how we can make your festival truly unforgettable.

Why choose a graffiti workshop for your next Tokyo festival or event? It’s not just about the paint; it’s about the connection and the thrill of the "spray." Here is why we are the top choice for urban creativity: ✨

Total flexibility: We come to you. Whether it's a park in Osaka or a rooftop in Sapporo, our mobile setup is ready to roll.
Zero risk booking: No upfront payment required! We trust you’ll love the experience, so you only pay once the art is done. 💪

Step by step

Arrival and check-in: Meet our crew at the festival site in the heart of Tokyo. We'll get you registered and ready to go!
Safety briefing and gear-up: We suit you up in protective gear and explain the golden rules of using spray cans safely and effectively.
The basics of spray tech: Learn about 'caps,' distance, and pressure. Our pros demonstrate how to pull a clean line and create smooth fades.
Sketching your vision: Grab a marker and map out your design. Whether it's your name in 'wildstyle' or a Tokyo-inspired character, the choice is yours.
First layers: Start filling in your colors! This is where the magic happens as the wall begins to transform with vibrant JPY-standard pigments.
Outlining and detailing: Use thinner caps to add those sharp outlines and 'highs' that make your graffiti pop off the surface.
Final touches: Add 3D effects, 'shines,' or background elements to give your piece that professional festival finish.
Photo op and cleanup: Snap some photos of your masterpiece for the 'gram before we help you de-suit. You've officially made your mark on Tokyo!

Local culture

Tokyo's relationship with street art is a fascinating blend of underground rebellion and high-end gallery culture. From the hidden 'legal walls' in Shibuya to the massive murals of Tennozu Isle, the city is a living museum. Our workshops pay homage to this local history, blending traditional Japanese precision with global street art influences. We often find inspiration in the city's unique 'Kawaii' culture or its gritty industrial aesthetics, making every workshop uniquely 'Tokyo.'

Fun Fact: Did you know that while Japan has strict laws regarding unsanctioned graffiti, many Tokyo districts are now actively commissioning street artists to revitalize urban spaces? We work within this professional framework to keep the culture thriving! 🇯🇵
