Frequently asked questions
Do I need any prior art experience to join?
Absolutely! Most of our guests in Cork have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to handle the can, control the pressure, and create clean lines. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've created. It’s all about having fun and expressing yourself in a relaxed, encouraging environment.
What materials are included in the workshop?
We provide everything you need to become a street artist for the day. This includes high-quality spray paint in a huge range of colours, protective gloves, and masks. We also provide overall suits, though we still recommend wearing clothes you don't mind getting a bit of 'artistic' dust on. You just need to bring your creativity and a bit of energy!
How long does a typical session last?
The workshop typically lasts between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us plenty of time to go through the history of graffiti, practice different techniques on a practice wall, and then move on to creating your final piece. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy session that flies by because you’re having so much fun. Perfect for fitting into a busy Cork sightseeing schedule!
Is it safe to use spray paint indoors or outdoors?
Safety is our number one priority. We use low-odour, high-quality spray paints and provide all necessary protective gear, including professional-grade masks and gloves. Our workshops take place in well-ventilated areas, and our experienced instructors are always on hand to ensure everyone is using the equipment correctly and safely. You're in very capable, professional hands with the Graffitifun team.
How much does a graffiti workshop in Cork cost?
Our pricing is flexible and depends on your group size and the specific setup of your workshop. Generally, prices range from €30 to €60 per person.

Can I book a workshop if I am travelling alone?
Of course! While we love hosting groups, we can often accommodate solo travellers or pairs by grouping you with others or finding a slot that works. Cork is a social city, and our workshops are a fantastic way to meet fellow travellers while doing something totally unique. Drop us a message to see what’s available during your visit.
What happens if I need to change my booking?
We know plans can change when you're on the road. Because we have a large team and backup artists available, we are very flexible.
