Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join a graffiti workshop in Marrakech?

Absolutely not! Our Marrakech workshop is designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned doodlers. Our professional artists will guide you through every stage, teaching you how to hold the can, control the pressure, and layer colours. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created, even if you’ve never touched a spray can before. It's all about having fun and being creative!

What should I wear to the graffiti cultural event?

We take safety and cleanliness seriously. We provide high-quality masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean. However, since we are working with permanent spray paint in an outdoor or semi-outdoor setting, we always recommend wearing old clothes and comfortable trainers that you don't mind getting a little dusty or speckled with a bit of 'artistic' overspray. Better safe than sorry!

How long does the graffiti experience last?

Our cultural event workshops typically last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives us plenty of time for a thorough introduction to graffiti history, a safety briefing, some practice runs on plastic film or boards, and then the main event: creating your final collaborative or individual piece. We move at a relaxed pace to ensure everyone enjoys the sunny Marrakech atmosphere while they work.

Is the spray paint safe to use?

Safety is our top priority at Graffitifun. We use high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary European-standard protective gear, including professional-grade masks and gloves. Our instructors are experienced professionals who ensure a safe environment for all ages. In Marrakech, we also ensure we have plenty of water and shade available so you can stay cool while you create your street art.

What is the maximum group size for a cultural event?

For our cultural events, we can host groups of almost any size. Whether you are a small travel group of 10 people or a large corporate delegation of 100+, we have the staff and materials to accommodate you. For larger groups, we bring in extra backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal guidance and the quality of the experience remains high. Just let us know your numbers!

What happens if I need to cancel or change my booking?

We understand that travel plans can change. That's why we offer a 'no upfront payment' policy—you only pay after the workshop is completed and you're 100% satisfied. If you need to reschedule or cancel, just give us as much notice as possible. We even have backup artists on standby to make sure your event goes ahead even if an instructor falls ill.

Can you host the workshop at our hotel or riad?

We love bringing the workshop to you! If your riad, hotel, or event venue has a suitable outdoor space or a well-ventilated courtyard, we can set up our mobile graffiti walls there. If not, don't worry—we have several fantastic outdoor locations around Marrakech, often near the vibrant art districts, where we can host your group and provide a truly authentic street art experience.
