Graffiti workshop for tourists in Barcelona
Welcome to the ultimate creative escape in the heart of Catalonia! If you are visiting Barcelona and want to do more than just see the sights, our graffiti workshop for tourists is the perfect way to leave your mark. Barcelona is a global mecca for street art, with vibrant murals tucked away in the Gothic Quarter and the industrial cool of Poblenou. Instead of just taking photos of other people's work, we invite you to grab a can and join the movement. Our workshops are designed for absolute beginners, led by local artists who live and breathe the city's urban culture. It is an energetic, colourful, and unforgettable way to spend an afternoon in one of the world's most artistic cities.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?
Absolutely! Most of our guests have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to control the pressure and nozzle. Barcelona is the perfect place to learn because the local street art scene is so welcoming. We provide all the guidance you need to create something you'll be proud of by the end of the session.
What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?
We recommend wearing old clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a bit of paint on. While we provide high-quality protective overalls and gloves, graffiti can be messy, and stray paint mist sometimes finds its way onto sleeves or shoes. It is better to be safe than sorry so you can focus entirely on your masterpiece without worrying about your outfit.
Is the spray paint safe to use?
Safety is our top priority. We provide professional-grade FFP2 or FFP3 masks to protect you from paint fumes, along with gloves and protective suits. All our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor or semi-outdoor spaces. Our instructors are experienced pros who ensure everyone handles the equipment correctly, making the experience safe for adults and older children alike.
How long does the experience last?
The workshop usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for a brief introduction to Barcelona's street art history, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on time for you to design and paint your piece. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where you get to learn a lot without getting too tired.
Where exactly in Barcelona do the workshops take place?
We have access to several legal walls and creative spaces across Barcelona, often in vibrant neighbourhoods like Poblenou. The exact location depends on your group size and the date. Once you book, we will send you clear directions and a map link. We always choose spots that are easily accessible by public transport or a short walk from the city centre.
Can I book a session for a large group?
Yes, we can accommodate almost any group size! Whether you are a solo traveller looking to join a group, a couple, or a large family, we have the staff and materials ready. For very large groups, we bring in backup artists to ensure everyone gets personal attention. Just let us know your numbers when you request your quote.
What happens if I need to cancel or if it rains?
We understand that travel plans can change. One of the best things about Graffitifun is that we don't require upfront payment for most bookings. You can book your spot and pay after the workshop is completed. We also have a network of backup artists, so even if an instructor falls ill, your Barcelona street art experience will still go ahead as planned.
