What happens if it rains during our Hobart festival?
While we love a bit of sunshine, Hobart's weather can be unpredictable. We can provide sturdy marquees to keep the creative energy flowing even if it drizzles. For heavy storms, we'll work with you to find an indoor alternative or reschedule. Our goal is to ensure your festival stays vibrant and fun, no matter what the Tassie skies decide to do on the day.
Is the graffiti activity safe for festival attendees?
Safety is our top priority! We use high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary protective gear, including masks, gloves, and aprons for participants. Our professional artists supervise every session to ensure everyone follows safety protocols. We also use low-odour paints where possible and ensure the setup is in a well-ventilated outdoor area, making it a safe, worry-free experience for festival-goers of all ages.
Can children participate in the graffiti workshops at a festival?
Absolutely! One of the best things about our workshops is that they are inclusive. We have techniques and tools that allow children, teens, and adults to participate side-by-side. For the little ones, we focus on simple shapes and bright colours, while the older crowd can get into more complex lettering and shading techniques. It’s a fantastic way to engage every demographic at your event.
Do festival organisers need to provide any equipment?
We are totally self-sufficient! We bring the paints, the protective gear, the boards/canvases, and the expert instructors. All we usually need from you is a flat space to set up and access to the site for our van. If you have specific themes or branding you want us to incorporate, just let us know in advance and we'll prep the stencils and palettes to match!
How much does it cost to have Graffitifun at a festival?
Pricing for Hobart festivals typically ranges from A$40 to A$90 per person, but because festivals have unique flows and varying attendee numbers, we prefer to give you a custom quote. This ensures you get the best value for your specific event size and duration. Whether it's a small boutique gathering or a massive public event, we can scale our services to fit your budget.
How far in advance should we book for a major event?
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially during Hobart's peak festival season (summer and autumn). Popular dates like the Dark Mofo period or Australia Day weekend fill up months in advance. However, because we have a large team of backup artists, we can often accommodate last-minute requests. Reach out today to check our availability for your specific dates!
