Frequently asked questions

I have zero artistic talent – can I still join the festival workshop?

Absolutely! Most of our festival participants have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert coaches who will guide you through the basics of safety, nozzle control, and layering. We create an encouraging environment where you can experiment freely. In no time at all, you'll be creating bold lines and vibrant fills that you never thought possible. Fun and learning go hand-in-hand here!

What safety measures do you take during the street art festival?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including masks, gloves, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We use professional-grade spray paints and conduct our workshops in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone starts painting, ensuring everyone knows how to handle the equipment responsibly while having a blast.

How long does a typical graffiti session last?

For our festival-style workshops, sessions typically last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time to cover the history of graffiti, practice basic techniques on plastic wrap or boards, and then move on to the main event: your own masterpiece! We find this is the perfect 'sweet spot' to keep energy levels high and creativity flowing without feeling rushed.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

While we provide protective overalls, we always recommend wearing 'work clothes' or something you don't mind getting a little paint on. Spray paint is permanent and can be unpredictable in the wind! Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are also a must. Aside from that, just bring your energy and perhaps a few ideas of what you might want to sketch out on the wall.

Can we book a private workshop for a large group?

Yes! We love tailoring our festival experiences for specific groups. Whether you are planning a unique team-building day, a high-energy bachelor party, or an educational school trip, we can adjust the theme, duration, and complexity to suit your needs. Just let us know your group size and goals, and we will build a custom graffiti package just for you.

Do I need to pay in advance to secure my spot?

No way! At Graffitifun, we believe in keeping things stress-free. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book. You can settle the payment after the workshop is finished. This way, you can be 100% sure you are happy with the experience before any money changes hands. It’s all part of our commitment to total customer satisfaction.

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

If the Italian weather decides not to cooperate, don't worry! We always have backup plans. We can often move to covered outdoor areas or set up indoor 'canvas' stations using low-odour paints if necessary. In the rare event of extreme weather, we are super flexible with rescheduling. Our goal is to make sure your street art experience happens no matter what!
