Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to participate?

Absolutely! Most of our cultural event participants in Budapest have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to control the nozzle and manage pressure. We provide a safe, encouraging environment where creativity flows naturally, regardless of your previous artistic experience. You'll be surprised at what you can create in just one session.

Is the graffiti workshop safe for everyone?

We take safety very seriously. We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks to ensure you don't get paint on your clothes or breathe in fumes. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor or indoor spaces approved for street art. Our instructors are also trained to manage groups safely, ensuring everyone follows proper handling procedures for the spray cans throughout the event.

How long does a typical workshop last?

For a standard cultural event or team outing, we recommend allowing 2 to 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief history of the Budapest street art scene, a technical demonstration, individual practice, and the final creation of your masterpiece. If you have a specific schedule to stick to, we can adapt the timing to fit your itinerary perfectly.

Where in Budapest do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible with locations! We can host the workshop at one of Budapest's legal 'Hall of Fame' graffiti walls, or we can bring the experience to your venue using mobile wooden canvases or plastic partitions. Whether you want to be in the heart of the VII District or at a private corporate retreat, we'll make it work for your group.

When and how do we handle the payment?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'pay after' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront bank transfers. You can pay securely via invoice after the workshop has been completed to your satisfaction. This ensures a stress-free booking process and gives you peace of mind that you're only paying for a successful, high-quality event.

What materials are included in the price?

We provide everything! Your booking includes all premium spray paint in a wide variety of colours, protective gear (suits, masks, gloves), and the 'canvas' (whether that's a wall or a mobile board). We even bring caps/nozzles for different line widths. All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and perhaps some comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of dust on.

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

Our workshops are designed to be weather-resilient. In Budapest, we have access to several sheltered locations and indoor-friendly setups with low-odour paints. If the weather looks particularly bad, our backup artists and flexible planning mean we can usually pivot to a covered spot so your cultural event goes ahead exactly as planned without any damp spirits.
