Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join the workshop?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Salzburg have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you safety, can control, and simple techniques. We guide you through the entire process, from sketching your first lines to adding those final highlights, ensuring you leave with a piece of art you're proud of. It’s all about having fun and expressing yourself!

What materials are included in the tourist graffiti workshop?

We provide everything you need for a creative session in Salzburg. This includes premium spray paint in a huge variety of colours, protective gloves, masks, and overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or practice walls and all sketching materials. You just need to bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable 'old' shoes that you don't mind getting a tiny bit of dust on.

How long does the graffiti experience usually take?

Standard workshops for tourists usually last between 1.5 to 3 hours. This gives us enough time for a safety briefing, a demonstration of techniques, and plenty of hands-on painting time. If you have a specific schedule while visiting Salzburg, let us know – we are flexible and can often tailor the duration to fit into your sightseeing itinerary perfectly.

Is the workshop safe for families and children?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP2 or FFP3 masks to filter out fumes, and we use low-pressure spray cans that are easier to control. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated areas or outdoors. Our experienced instructors closely supervise the group at all times, ensuring everyone follows safety protocols while having a blast. It’s a safe, controlled environment for artists of all ages.

How does the payment process work? Do I pay upfront?

We want your Salzburg experience to be stress-free. That’s why we offer a 'pay after the workshop' policy for most bookings. You don’t have to worry about upfront bank transfers while planning your trip. Once the paint has dried and you're happy with your masterpiece, we handle the payment. We accept various payment methods to make it as easy as possible for you.

Can I take my graffiti artwork home with me?

Yes, you can! For our tourist workshops, we often work on high-quality canvases that you can take home as the ultimate Salzburg souvenir. If you are painting on a larger communal wall, we make sure to take professional photos of your work so you can share them digitally. Please let us know if you want the 'take-home' canvas option when booking so we can prepare your kit.

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

Salzburg’s weather can be unpredictable, but we’ve got you covered. We have access to several sheltered or indoor locations where we can spray regardless of the rain. If the weather is truly extreme, we have backup artists and flexible rescheduling options. We’ll always communicate with you in advance to ensure your creative session goes ahead smoothly, no matter what the clouds are doing.
