Frequently asked questions

Do I need any previous art experience to join?

Absolutely! Most of our participants in Bilbao have never held a spray can before. Our professional artists start with the basics, teaching you how to control the nozzle, manage pressure, and create clean lines. By the end of the session, you'll be amazed at the masterpiece you've helped create. It is all about having fun and expresssing yourself in a supportive environment.

What materials are included in the workshop?

We provide everything you need to get creative. This includes high-quality spray paint in a wide range of colours, protective gloves, masks, and disposable overalls to keep your clothes clean. We also provide the canvases or designated wall space. Just bring your enthusiasm and wear some comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting a little bit of paint dust on!

Is the workshop safe for everyone?

Safety is our number one priority. We use low-pressure spray cans which are easier to control and provide high-quality FFP2 masks to ensure everyone breathes easy. Our workshops are held in well-ventilated outdoor areas or dedicated street art zones in Bilbao. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can to ensure a worry-free experience.

How long does the graffiti experience last?

A standard public art workshop in Bilbao usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time for introductions, a demonstration of techniques, individual practice, and the final creation of a large-scale mural. We can adjust the duration slightly based on your group's specific needs or the complexity of the project you want to tackle.

Do I have to pay in advance?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our flexible booking policy. You don't need to pay anything upfront to secure your date in Bilbao. We believe in the quality of our workshops, so you simply pay after the event is finished. This takes the stress out of planning and ensures you are 100% happy with the service provided.

What happens if it rains on the day?

We can host workshops throughout the year! Bilbao's weather can be unpredictable, but we have access to various covered outdoor locations and 'hall of fame' spots that offer protection from the elements. If the weather is really working against us, our backup artist system and flexible scheduling mean we can almost always find a solution to keep the paint flowing.

Is there a minimum or maximum group size?

Whether you are a solo traveller, a couple, or a large group, we can accommodate you. For our public art sessions, we often group individuals together to create a vibrant social atmosphere. For private bookings like bachelor parties or corporate events, we can handle groups from 5 to over 100 people. Just let us know your numbers when you get in touch.
