How it works

  1. Intro and safety briefing: Your session starts with a warm welcome from our local Barcelona artist, followed by a quick chat about safety, equipment, and how to use the protective gear provided.
  2. The story of street art: Gain some context with a brief history of how graffiti evolved from New York subways to the world-class galleries and streets of Barcelona.
  3. Mastering the can: Start with basic techniques—learn how to control the pressure, create clean lines, and manage different nozzle types (caps) for various effects.
  4. Sketching your vision: Grab some paper and pencils to map out your ideas. Our artists will help you refine your design so it's ready for the wall.
  5. Fill-ins and fades: Move to the wall to apply your base colours. We'll show you how to create smooth gradients and vibrant transitions with your spray cans.
  6. Outlining and cutting: Learn the 'pro' secrets of outlining your work to make it pop and using 'cutting' techniques to fix any drips or wobbles.
  7. Details and highlights: Add the finishing touches, like highlights, shadows, and those essential bits of flair that turn a sketch into a piece of art.
  8. Group photo and cleanup: Wrap up by admiring the finished mural with your group, snapping some photos for the 'gram, and safely disposing of your equipment.

Practical details

Our graffiti workshops are designed to be hassle-free. Each session typically lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours, giving you ample time to learn and create. To ensure everyone gets enough attention from the artist, we keep our group sizes manageable, though we can accommodate everything from solo travellers to large groups of up to 100 people. We provide all materials, including premium spray paint, various caps, gloves, high-quality masks, and protective overalls. Safety is our top priority, and all workshops are led by experienced, professional artists. We always have backup artists on standby to ensure your event never gets cancelled. Plus, there is no upfront payment required—you only pay once the workshop is finished!

Our Barcelona graffiti experiences are priced competitively to ensure street art is accessible to everyone. Prices generally range from €25 to €50 per person, depending on your group size, the duration of the session, and whether you require a private or public setup.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be an artist to join the workshop?

You don't need any prior artistic experience to enjoy our graffiti workshop in Barcelona. Our professional artists are experts at breaking down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps. We've taught thousands of beginners, from young children to corporate executives, how to handle a spray can and create something they are proud of. If you can hold a can, we can teach you to paint!

What should I wear to the graffiti session?

We provide high-quality protective overalls, gloves, and masks to keep you safe and clean. However, we always recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you wouldn't mind getting a tiny speck of paint on, just in case. Since we often work at outdoor legal walls in sunny Barcelona, bringing a hat and some sunscreen is also a very smart move.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

The workshop typically lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours. This duration is perfectly balanced to give you enough time to learn the theory, practice your can control, and complete a final collaborative masterpiece without feeling rushed. We can also adapt the timing for specific events if you have a tighter schedule to maintain.

Is the workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our absolute priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks and nitrile gloves for every participant. Our instructors are professional artists who understand the technical safety of aerosol paint and ensure the workshop is conducted in a well-ventilated outdoor environment. We use professional-grade paints that are industry standard for safety and performance.

When do I need to pay for the workshop?

Unlike many other providers, we don't ask for a deposit or upfront payment. We believe in the quality of our workshops and the trust of our customers. You can pay for the experience after the workshop is completed. This ensures you are 100% satisfied with the street art experience we've provided before any money changes hands.

What happens if the artist is sick?

In the rare event that an instructor is unwell, we have a robust network of backup artists in the Barcelona region. We pride ourselves on our reliability and 100% satisfaction focus, so we make sure a professional is always available to lead your session. You won't be left hanging with a cancelled booking last minute.

Can I take my artwork home with me?

Absolutely! While the core experience involves working on a large shared mural to learn scale and collaboration, we can often arrange for participants to paint on smaller individual canvases or boards that you can take home as a souvenir. Just let us know in advance if this is something you'd like to include in your package.
