Why choose us in Amsterdam?

Standing out in a sea of exhibition booths is tough. You need something visual, tactile, and shareable. Here’s why our graffiti workshops are the secret weapon for your next Amsterdam event:

  • Unbeatable foot traffic: The sound and scent of a spray can are natural magnets. People will stop to watch the art happen, giving your sales team the perfect opening. 🎤
  • Instant social proof: It’s the ultimate photo-op. Visitors love sharing their creative process on LinkedIn and Instagram, giving your booth organic reach far beyond the venue walls.
  • Stress-free logistics: We’ve worked in the RAI Amsterdam and Posthoornkerk many times. We know the rules, we bring the floor protection, and we handle the cleanup. 🧹
  • Deep brand connection: Instead of just handing out a flyer, you’re giving a visitor a memory. They’ll associate your brand with creativity and fun long after the show ends.
  • Total customisation: We don't just 'do graffiti'. We create art that reflects your corporate values, using your logos and brand messaging as the core of the piece. 🏆
  • No-risk booking: With our 'pay after' policy and backup artist guarantee, you can focus on your leads while we handle the entertainment.

How it works

  1. Initial consultation: Reach out to us with your trade show dates at the RAI Amsterdam or other local venues. We’ll discuss your booth layout and brand goals.
  2. Design & concept: Our artists create a digital mockup of your graffiti wall, incorporating your logos, slogans, and brand colour palette.
  3. Logistics planning: We coordinate with the venue organisers regarding safety, ventilation, and floor protection to ensure everything is 100% compliant.
  4. On-site setup: On the day, our team arrives early to set up the 'spray zone' with protective flooring, canvases, and all necessary gear.
  5. Live demonstration: We start with a bang! Our pros begin a live piece to catch the eyes of early morning attendees and build a buzz.
  6. Interactive engagement: We invite visitors into the booth, hand them a can, and coach them through adding their own creative marks to the canvas.
  7. Social media buzz: Visitors snap photos of their work (and your brand), sharing the experience across LinkedIn and Instagram in real-time.
  8. The big reveal: By the end of the show, you have a completed masterpiece that represents the collective energy of your booth visitors.
  9. Pack down: We quickly and cleanly dismantle the setup, either handing you the finished canvas to keep or disposing of materials responsibly.

Frequently asked questions

Is it possible to host a graffiti workshop inside a trade show booth?

Absolutely! We specialise in 'plug-and-play' setups for trade shows in Amsterdam. Whether your booth is at the RAI or a smaller venue like SugarFactory, we provide floor protection, ventilation solutions, and low-odour paints if required. We handle the entire cleanup, leaving your space exactly as we found it. We're used to working within strict exhibition hall regulations to ensure a smooth, stress-free experience for your team.

How long does the graffiti experience take for visitors?

While a full workshop can take 90 minutes, for trade shows we often pivot to a 'drop-in' format. Guests can spend 5 to 10 minutes adding their flair to a collective piece or creating a quick branded souvenir. This high-speed engagement is perfect for exhibition floors where visitors are constantly on the move but looking for a memorable reason to stop at your specific stand.

What about safety and protective clothing for participants?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, disposable gloves, and protective suits to ensure your guests' business attire stays spotless. Our professional artists are trained to manage the spray zone carefully. We also offer water-based spray paint options which are much lower in odour and VOCs, making them ideal for indoor environments with standard ventilation.

Can we include our company logo or specific brand colours?

Definitely! One of the biggest draws of a trade show workshop is seeing your company logo transformed into street art. We can pre-stencil your logo onto a large canvas or wall, which visitors then help fill in. Alternatively, we can use your brand's specific HEX colours in our paint selection to ensure the final masterpiece perfectly aligns with your corporate identity and marketing goals.

What do the participants actually paint on?

For trade shows, we typically suggest a large communal canvas or a temporary wooden 'graffiti wall'. This creates a massive visual impact that grows throughout the day. However, we can also offer individual small canvases or even branded items like tote bags or caps that guests can spray and take home as a unique, hand-crafted piece of 'swag' that definitely won't end up in the bin.

How far in advance should we book for an Amsterdam event?

We recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks in advance for major Amsterdam events like IBC or Interclean to ensure we have your preferred artists and materials ready. However, we have a large team and backup artists on standby, so we can often accommodate last-minute requests. Pricing is flexible based on duration and booth size—just reach out for a custom quote and we'll get it sorted!
