We also carry full liability insurance and have a robust backup artist system to ensure your entertainment never falls through at the last minute.

Frequently asked questions
How do we book a graffiti workshop for our festival in Budapest?
Booking is simple and stress-free. You don't need to pay anything upfront; we handle everything on a trust basis where you pay after the event is successfully completed. Simply contact us with your festival dates, expected headcounts, and location in Budapest. We will then provide a tailored quote and handle the logistics, ensuring a backup artist is always on standby so your schedule never faces a last-minute cancellation.
Is the graffiti workshop safe for festival attendees?
Absolutely. Safety is our top priority at every event. We provide all participants with high-quality protective gear, including gloves and masks. Our professional artists supervise every spray, ensuring that the paint stays on the designated canvases or walls and not on the festival grounds. We use professional-grade spray cans and ensure the setup is positioned in a well-ventilated area to keep everyone safe and happy.
What kind of space and equipment do you need from the festival organisers?
We are highly flexible and can work with various setups. Whether you want a 'walk-in' station where people drop by for 10 minutes or a structured 2-hour masterclass, we can adapt. We provide the boards, the paint, and the protection. All we usually need is a flat area of about 20-40 square metres and a bit of clearance from food stalls or sensitive stages. Even if it rains, as long as there is a gazebo, the show goes on!
What age groups can participate in the street art workshops?
Graffiti is a universal language! Our workshops are designed to be inclusive for all ages, from kids and teenagers to adults. For younger children, we focus on simpler shapes and stencils, while adults can dive deep into complex lettering and shading techniques. It’s a fantastic way to engage families and creative individuals alike, making it a versatile addition to any Budapest cultural event or music festival.
Can you provide live art demonstrations as well as workshops?
Yes, we offer live graffiti demonstrations alongside our interactive workshops. If you want a professional artist to create a massive, branded mural throughout the day while attendees watch or help out, we can make that happen. This 'live art' element creates a fantastic focal point for the festival and provides a backdrop that looks incredible in photos and on social media, giving your event extra digital reach.
What happens if it rains during the outdoor festival?
Budapest is a city of seasons, and we are ready for all of them. If your festival is outdoors, we recommend a tent or gazebo setup to protect from sun or light rain. In the event of extreme weather, we can often move the workshop to a sheltered area or reschedule. Because we have a large team of backup artists, we are incredibly reliable—weather is usually the only thing we can't fully control, but we always have a plan B.
