Why choose us in Rotterdam?

How it works

  1. Initial vibe check: You reach out and tell us about your Rotterdam festival. Is it a massive music event or a local food market? We’ll brainstorm the best graffiti setup for your specific crowd.
  2. Custom design: Our artists can pre-sketch a theme, logo, or 'Rotterdam style' outline on the walls so your visitors have a professional framework to work with.
  3. The gear up: On the day, we arrive early to set up the 'Graffiti Zone'. We provide everything: hundreds of spray cans, masks, gloves, and protective suits.
  4. Live demo & intro: We start with a bang! Our artists show off some quick skills to draw a crowd and explain the basics of can control and safety.
  5. Let the spraying begin: Visitors step up to the wall. Under our guidance, they learn to fill, fade, and outline, contributing to a giant piece of collective street art.
  6. Refining the masterpiece: As the workshop winds down, our pro artists add the 'finishing touches'—sharp outlines and highlights—to make the festival mural look absolutely world-class.
  7. Photo ops: The final mural becomes the ultimate backdrop for festival-goers to take selfies and share the event's energy on social media.
  8. Clean up: We pack everything up, ensuring the site is left exactly as we found it, leaving only great memories (and maybe a gorgeous canvas) behind.

Frequently asked questions

Can you host a graffiti workshop at any festival location in Rotterdam?

Absolutely! While we love taking over high-traffic spots like Rotterdam Centraal or the Witte de Withstraat for festivals, we are fully mobile. We bring all the drop cloths, protective barriers, and ventilation-friendly setups needed to host a graffiti workshop or live demo at your specific event grounds, whether it's an indoor warehouse or an outdoor park. We just need a flat surface and some space to spray!

What safety measures do you take during busy events?

We take safety very seriously. All participants are provided with high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and specialised masks to ensure no one goes home with paint-stained clothes or fumes. Our professional artists supervise every spray, ensuring a controlled environment. We also use low-pressure cans for beginners, which are much easier to handle and safer for people who have never held a spray can before.

How many people can participate in a workshop during a festival?

For large-scale festivals in Rotterdam, we recommend a 'walk-in' workshop style. This allows hundreds of visitors to contribute a few strokes or a small 'tag' to a massive collective mural throughout the day. Alternatively, we can run scheduled 45-minute mini-sessions for smaller groups. We are flexible and will design a flow that matches your festival's specific crowd density and timetable.

Do I need to pay in advance for the booking?

Not at all! You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your festival entertainment with Graffitifun. We believe in our service and your satisfaction, so you pay only after the workshop is completed. This keeps the booking process stress-free for festival organisers who are already juggling a million logistics. We want you to feel confident and excited about your event!

What happens if it rains during an outdoor festival?

We always recommend a 'Plan B'. If your Rotterdam festival is outdoors and the weather turns typical Dutch 'grey', we can often move under a tent or canopy. If that's not possible, we have a large team of backup artists and flexible scheduling to ensure we find a solution. Our goal is to make sure the art happens, rain or shine!

Can you provide live graffiti art demonstrations instead of a workshop?

Yes, we do! If you want to impress the crowds at events like the Rotterdamse Dakendagen, our pro artists can create a massive, high-impact mural live in front of the audience. This 'Street Art Performance' is a huge crowd-puller. People love watching a blank wall transform into a masterpiece over a few hours. It provides a perfect photo-op and great social media content for your event.
