Is the graffiti workshop suitable for children and beginners?

Absolutely! While we love working with the pros, our festival workshops are designed for everyone from toddlers to grandparents. Our artists provide a quick safety briefing and then guide participants through basic techniques like 'filling' and 'fading'. We use water-based spray cans for the little ones when needed, ensuring the festival vibes stay safe, inclusive, and incredibly fun for every single guest.

Where can we set up the workshop at our festival?

We are totally mobile! Whether your festival is in the heart of Groningen at Noorderplantsoen or a remote field in the province, we bring everything to you. We set up professional-grade wooden walls or use stretch plastic 'cellograff' walls between trees. This means we can create a temporary street art gallery anywhere without leaving a permanent mark on the venue’s existing infrastructure.

How do you handle safety and protective gear?

Safety is our number one priority. We provide all participants with high-quality FFP2 masks, protective gloves, and single-use ponchos to keep their festival outfits clean. Our professional artists are also trained in crowd management to ensure everyone uses the spray cans safely. We also ensure our setup is well-ventilated and positioned away from food stalls or main thoroughfares.

How many people can participate in a day?

We offer various formats! We can do a 'walk-in' style where hundreds of people contribute to one massive mural throughout the day, or scheduled 45-minute sessions for smaller groups. For high-impact visual entertainment, we also offer live-painting demonstrations where our pro artists create a masterpiece from scratch while the crowd watches in awe. Whatever your schedule, we can flex to fit it.

What happens if an artist is unable to make it?

We have a dedicated back-up system with several professional artists on call. This means even if an instructor falls ill, your festival entertainment is never at risk. We pride ourselves on 100% reliability, so you can tick 'entertainment' off your to-do list with total peace of mind. Plus, you don't pay anything upfront—only after the event is successfully completed!

What if it rains during the festival?

The North Sea weather can be unpredictable, but the party doesn't have to stop! We can set up our workshops under easy-up tents or move the activity into a marquee. As long as there is a roof over the painting area, the graffiti fun continues. We closely monitor the forecast and coordinate with festival organisers to ensure we have a 'Plan B' ready to go.

Lokal kultur

Groningen is a city that breathes creativity, from the iconic Groninger Museum to the hidden street art gems in the Ebbingekwartier. The city's 'nothing beats Groningen' attitude is the perfect backdrop for a festival graffiti workshop. Did you know that Groningen has a long-standing history with street culture? It served as a pioneer for graffiti in the Netherlands back in the 80s! 💡 Fun Fact: The legendary 'Groningen School' of graffiti is world-renowned for its bold styles and bright colours, much like the vibrant spirit of the city itself. By bringing a graffiti workshop to your festival, you're not just providing entertainment; you're tapping into the deep artistic roots of this northern powerhouse. 🔥

Prissättning

Our festival packages are as unique as your event. Prices typically range from €25 to €55 per person, depending on the duration, group size, and specific customisation requirements.

Because every festival has different needs, we don't believe in one-size-fits-all pricing. Whether you want a single workshop or a multi-day live art activation, we'll build a package that fits your budget perfectly.

No upfront payment required – pay only after the fun is done! ✨
