How it works

  1. Arrival and meet-up: Meet your pro artist at our designated Budapest street art spot where we’ll get the vibes going.
  2. Gear up: We’ll kit you out with professional masks, gloves, and protective suits so you stay clean while getting creative.
  3. Canvas prep: Learn how to prepare your surface, whether it's a legal wall or a custom-built wooden canvas, for the best paint adhesion.
  4. Nozzle knowledge: Get a crash course on different 'caps' (nozzles) and how they change the thickness and texture of your spray lines.
  5. Sketching your vision: Use chalk or light spray to map out your design, focusing on layout and scale before the real colour starts.
  6. Filling and fading: Master the art of 'filling in' and creating smooth colour gradients (fades) to give your work depth.
  7. Outlining and details: The moment of truth—adding the sharp outlines and 'highlights' that make your graffiti pop off the wall.
  8. Photo session: We’ll take high-quality photos of you and your finished piece so you can show off your skills to the world.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have any artistic talent or experience?

Absolutely! Most of our guests in Budapest have never touched a spray can before. Our professional artists break down the process into simple, manageable steps. We start with basic lines and shapes on practice surfaces before moving on to your main piece. We provide all the guidance and 'cheat-codes' you need to ensure you walk away with a piece of art you are actually proud of showcasing.

Is the workshop safe/what protective gear is provided?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality respiratory masks, gloves, and protective overalls to keep your clothes clean and your lungs safe. We use professional-grade spray paint that meets European safety standards. Our instructors also give a comprehensive safety briefing at the start of every session to ensure everyone handles the equipment correctly and stays safe throughout the creative process in the Budapest sun.

What should I wear to the graffiti workshop?

We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes that you don't mind getting a little dusty or potentially get a stray speck of paint on. While we provide full protective body suits and gloves, graffiti can be a bit messy! It's best to avoid your brand-new designer trainers or your favourite white shirt. Think practical and comfortable so you can move freely while painting your masterpiece.

What happens if it rains on the day of the event?

Rain won't stop the creativity! We have access to several covered and indoor locations across Budapest that allow us to continue the workshop regardless of the weather. If the forecast looks particularly grim for an outdoor session, we will coordinate with you to move the event to one of our sheltered 'Plan B' spots, ensuring your street art experience remains dry and enjoyable.

How long does a typical session last?

Our standard public art workshops in Budapest typically last between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This timeframe allows for the initial introduction, safety briefing, technique practice, and the creation of your final artwork. We find this is the 'sweet spot' where participants stay energised and focused without getting tired. However, we can also customise the duration for larger festival groups or corporate events.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

We are incredibly flexible with group sizes! Whether you are a solo traveller looking for a unique Budapest experience, a small group of friends, or a massive corporate team of 100+, we can accommodate you. For very large groups, we bring in additional professional artists and backup staff to ensure everyone gets personal attention and plenty of space to spray.

Do I need to pay in advance to book?

One of the best things about Graffitifun is our 'Create Now, Pay Later' policy. You don't need to worry about upfront deposits or online transaction fees. You simply book your slot, come down to the Budapest location, enjoy the full creative experience, and settle the payment after the workshop is finished. We believe in our service so much that we want you to be 100% satisfied first.
