Support Upfest and our artists at this years Extream Sports Festival...

Upfest, Established in 2008 has fast become the largest 'live' street art festival across Europe. We now work with over 200 Urban & Contemporary artists from across the globe promoting street work, design and 'live' art. With the help of other festival like Relentless Nass and Boardmaster we have been given the opportunity to take the 'live' element of our work on tour, promoting the work and the ethos that great original artwork isn't just for the select few.

Just over 200 artist were at our festival in June including 45 from outside the UK, artists this year were asked to collaborate with mashUP's so over half the artists were working together in crews or pairs creating proper big and mixed up work. Part of the philosophy of Upfest has been to keep the festival open to artists with varying levels of experience and each year even the newest guys and girls are really stepping up to the challenge and stress of painting in front of thousands of visitors, the comments we have had through emails and our Facebook fan page definitely agree that we have stumbled across the right approach.

The intrinsic link between skating, hip hop, the world of graffiti and urban art has been with us from day dot and is why we are pleased to bring the 'live' environment to Relentless Nass so your festival goers can really appreciate the skillz these artists have with a can.
