Why choose us in Lyon?

Why choose a VIP graffiti experience in the city of lights and silk? Well, Lyon has a soul that is best expressed through art. Here’s why our workshop is the highlight of any trip: 💪

  • Expert mentors: You’ll work with active Lyon-based graffiti artists who know every "Hall of Fame" in the city.
  • Total creative freedom: This isn't a "paint by numbers" session; you choose the colours, the style, and the vibe.
  • Premium gear: We use the best low-pressure spray cans for better control, meaning even beginners get professional results.
  • Unique locations: Forget stuffy studios; we take you to the heart of Lyon’s urban landscape.
  • No-risk booking: With our pay-after-the-event policy and backup artists, you are 100% guaranteed a top-tier experience. 🏆

How it works

  1. Welcome and intro: Meet your pro artist at the street art spot and get a brief history of Lyon's graffiti scene.
  2. Gear up: Put on your protective mask, gloves, and poncho. Safety first, but make it fashion!
  3. The big sketch: Grab the markers and help sketch the outline of your group’s massive masterpiece on the wall.
  4. Nozzle knowledge: Learn the difference between ‘skinny’ and ‘fat’ caps and how to control your spray pressure.
  5. Fill-in fun: Start layering the colours. This is where you learn to blend gradients and create vibrant patterns.
  6. The outline: Use a steady hand to add the sharp outlines that make your graffiti 'pop' off the wall.
  7. Highlights and details: Add those final 'pro' touches like shines, bubbles, or 3D effects to give it depth.
  8. The photoshoot: Strike a pose in front of your finished work for some high-energy photos.
  9. Clean up: We handle all the disposal of cans and gear, leaving you to head off for a celebratory drink in the city!

Frequently asked questions

What safety measures do you provide during the workshop?

Your safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 respiratory masks, protective gloves, and disposable ponchos to keep your clothes clean. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated legal graffiti zones. Our professional artists will give you a full safety briefing before you touch a can, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and confident throughout the VIP experience in Lyon.

Do I need prior art experience to participate?

The workshop is designed to be fully inclusive! Whether you are a total beginner who has never held a spray can or a hobbyist artist, our pros will guide you. We focus on technique, fun, and creativity rather than perfection. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at what you’ve managed to create on the wall. No drawing skills required—just a bit of enthusiasm!

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of paint on. While we provide full protective gear including ponchos and gloves, spray paint can be unpredictable in the wind! Avoid your brand-new designer trainers just in case. We’ll take care of the rest, providing all the professional-grade spray cans and caps you'll need for your masterpiece.

Can the workshop take place at a location of my choice?

While our VIP workshops usually take place at curated street art locations or 'Halls of Fame' in Lyon, we can also bring the experience to you. If you have a private space or are hosting an event at a venue with an outdoor area, we can set up mobile cellophane walls or large canvases. This flexibility allows us to create a bespoke street art studio wherever you feel most comfortable.

How long does a typical VIP workshop last?

Standard VIP sessions typically last between 2 and 3 hours. This gives us enough time for the introduction, sketching, practicing different nozzle techniques, and completing a full-scale piece. If you have a tighter schedule or want an extended deep-dive into advanced techniques, just let us know. We can customise the duration to fit your group’s specific itinerary perfectly.

What happens if the artist is unavailable?

Absolutely! We have a large team of professional street artists across France. This means we have built-in redundancy; if an artist is unwell, a backup is always ready to step in. We pride ourselves on reliability and have never cancelled a workshop due to artist availability. You can book your VIP Lyon experience with total peace of mind knowing the show will go on!

Is there an upfront payment required for the booking?

No deposit is required to secure your booking! We believe in the quality of our service, so you only pay after the workshop is completed. Once the session is over, you can pay via invoice or bank transfer. This 'pay-after' policy makes the planning process stress-free for organisers, especially for VIP groups and corporate clients who need to finalise attendance numbers first.
