Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Aarhus have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists are expert teachers who break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and shapes before moving on to more complex fills and outlines, ensuring you leave with a piece of art you're proud of.

How long does the graffiti workshop last?

A typical street art session for tourists in Aarhus lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, individual sketching, and the final painting process. We move at a relaxed pace so you can enjoy the creative flow without feeling rushed.

What is included in the workshop price?

We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray paint in a wide range of colours, protective masks, gloves, and overalls. We also provide the 'canvas'—whether that's a legal wall space in the city or portable boards to take home.

Is the workshop safe for children and beginners?

Your safety is our priority. We use low-odour, professional-grade spray cans and provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to filter out fumes. We recommend wearing old clothes and shoes, as even with our protective overalls, things can get a bit messy when you're getting creative!

Where exactly in Aarhus do the workshops take place?

We carry out our Aarhus workshops at designated legal graffiti zones or private locations. This ensures you can focus on your art without worrying about the legalities. Aarhus has some fantastic urban spaces that provide the perfect atmospheric backdrop for your creative experience.

Do I need to pay for the workshop in advance?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexible booking policy. You don't need to pay anything upfront when you book your slot. Payment is only required after the workshop is finished. This gives you total peace of mind and flexibility during your travels in Denmark.

What happens if it rains on the day of my booking?

Aarhus can be a bit breezy! If the weather is too wet for outdoor painting, we usually have indoor backup locations or can reschedule to a better time. If we can't make it work, you aren't charged a penny. We also have backup artists available to ensure your booking is never cancelled.
