Do festival visitors need any previous art experience?

Not at all! Our festival workshops are designed for everyone from toddlers to grandparents. Our professional artists guide participants through the basic techniques of spray painting, starting with simple lines and moving up to bigger fills. We provide all the tips and tricks needed to make sure every visitor feels like a pro by the time they finish their first tag or piece.

Is the activity safe for children and families?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high quality gloves and protective masks for all participants to ensure a safe breathing environment. We also use low odour paints where possible and set up our stations in well ventilated outdoor areas. Our professional instructors are always on hand to manage the equipment and ensure that the spray cans are being used responsibly and safely.

What materials does Graffitifun provide for the event?

We provide everything required for a successful street art activation! This includes premium spray paint in a huge variety of vibrant colours, protective gear like masks and gloves, and the painting surfaces themselves. Whether we are using large wooden boards, canvas walls, or plastic wrap sheets, we bring the whole setup so you can focus on enjoying your festival.

What happens if it rains during the festival?

We are well prepared for the unpredictable New Zealand weather. If rain is in the forecast, we can set up under gazebos or large marquees to keep the artists and the artwork dry. We also have backup artists available to ensure your event goes ahead no matter what. If things get really wild, we can even pivot to indoor friendly paint markers on smaller canvases.

Can participants take their artwork home with them?

Absolutely! One of the best things about our festival workshops is that participants can take a piece of the event home with them. Depending on your setup, we can have visitors paint on individual mini canvases or small boards. Alternatively, we can create one massive collaborative mural that stays at your venue as a lasting legacy of the festival weekend.

How far in advance should we book for a Napier event?

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for busy summer festival seasons in Napier. Typically, booking 4 to 8 weeks in advance is ideal to secure your preferred dates and ensure we have our top artists available. However, because we have a large team and backup artists, we can sometimes accommodate last minute requests, so it is always worth asking us!

Bom saber

Our festival activations are designed to be flexible and high impact. A typical session can run anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, depending on your event schedule. We can host small groups of 10 or engage with hundreds of visitors throughout the day in an "open booth" style. We provide all necessary premium spray paints, protective masks, gloves, and overalls to keep everyone clean and safe. Safety is our number one priority, and our artists are trained in site management to ensure the spray paint stays exactly where it belongs: on the art! 🎨

Cultura local

Napier is famous for its stunning Art Deco architecture, but there is a growing appreciation for modern street art that complements our historic aesthetic. The city has become a canvas for world class murals, especially through events like Sea Walls: Murals for Oceans. Hosting a graffiti workshop here feels like a natural extension of Napier's artistic soul. Whether your festival is taking place near the Sound Shell or at the beautiful McLean Park, we bring that urban edge that residents and tourists alike absolutely love.

Fun fact: Napier is known as the Art Deco capital of the world, and many of the modern murals hidden in the alleyways actually use colour palettes inspired by the 1930s to keep the city's unique heritage alive!

Preços

Because every festival is unique, our pricing is fully customised to your needs. Prices depend on group size, the amount of paint required, and the specific setup of your Napier location. We believe in total transparency, which is why there are no upfront payments required: you only pay after the workshop is complete! 💰
