Do I need to be artistic or have experience to join?

Absolutely no prior experience is needed! Our Helsinki graffiti workshops are designed specifically for beginners and tourists looking for a fun, creative outlet. Our professional artists will guide you through every step, from holding the spray can correctly to mastering advanced shading techniques. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created, even if you’ve never picked up a can of paint before.

What should I wear and do you provide protective gear?

We’ve got you covered! We provide high-quality overall suits, gloves, and specialized masks to protect your clothes and ensure you breathe easy. While our gear is excellent, we always recommend wearing comfortable shoes and 'work clothes' you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on, just in case. Your safety and comfort are our top priorities while you're getting creative in the Finnish capital.

How long does the workshop last?

A standard workshop for tourists in Helsinki typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us plenty of time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of your own street art piece. It’s the perfect length to fit into a busy sightseeing itinerary without feeling rushed, leaving you plenty of time to explore more of Helsinki afterwards.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Yes, safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks and ensure all our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas or outdoor legal walls. Our instructors are professional artists who take all necessary precautions to ensure a safe environment for everyone. We use premium low-pressure spray cans which are much easier to control and safer for beginners to use.

Can I book a private workshop for just my family or friends?

Our workshops are very flexible. Individual travellers can often join a mixed group session, while private groups can book their own bespoke experience. Whether you are a solo backpacker, a couple on a city break, or a large family visiting Finland, we can accommodate you. For very large groups, we simply bring in more of our expert artists to ensure everyone gets plenty of personal guidance.

What happens if it rains on the day of my workshop?

Helsinki weather can be unpredictable, but the fun doesn't stop! If we are scheduled for an outdoor wall and it rains, we often have access to sheltered areas or indoor locations where we can continue the workshop safely. We always have backup artists and flexible arrangements in place to ensure your creative experience isn't dampened by a bit of Finnish drizzle. We'll keep you updated if any location changes are needed.

Local culture

Helsinki's relationship with street art has evolved beautifully over the years. From the strict "Zero Tolerance" days of the early 2000s to today’s vibrant mural culture in districts like Pasila, the city has embraced urban expression. When you join our workshop, you're stepping into a scene that is uniquely Finnish—organised yet rebellious, cool yet incredibly welcoming. 🇫🇮

Fun Fact: Helsinki is home to the Suvilahti graffiti wall, a constantly changing "open gallery" where the art is as transient as the seasons. It's the beating heart of the local scene! ✨

Beyond Helsinki, we also bring the spray paint magic to Espoo, Tampere, Turku, and Oulu. Each city has its own local legends and hidden spots waiting to be discovered.

Our workshops are tailored to your group's size and needs, making them an affordable highlight of any Helsinki trip. 💶
