How long does a paint and sip event last?

Longer than you expect. Better than you planned. And yes, you will finish your painting before the night ends.

Paint Juicy offers three session formats, each designed for a different kind of night. Here is what you are getting with each one.

Express - 90 minutes

A punchy, focused session that gets you painting fast and finishes with plenty of night ahead. Perfect as a pre-dinner warm-up or a first-time experience for someone who is not sure how long they want to commit.

In 90 minutes you paint one canvas, get the singalong moments and leave with a finished piece in hand. It moves fast and that is part of the fun.

Classic - 2 to 2.5 hours (most popular)

The standard Paint Juicy format and the one most public sessions run on. Two to two and a half hours gives the host room to breathe, guests time to enjoy the painting without rushing and the singalong moments space to properly land.

The breakdown is roughly: 20 minutes of settling in and introductions, 90 to 100 minutes of painting with games and singalong breaks built in, and 20 to 30 minutes for final touches, group photos and packdown. Most guests end the night not wanting it to stop.

Party Plus - 3 hours

The big one. Extra time means extra moments - more singalong breaks, time for speeches or cake if it is a birthday or hens, more room for add-ons like tarot readings or games. This format is ideal for private bookings where you want the painting to be part of a bigger night rather than the whole thing.

Three hours sounds long until you are in it. Then it feels like two.

Does the painting actually get finished in that time?

Every single time. This is not a coincidence - it is how Paint Juicy sessions are designed. The host artist sets the pace deliberately so that every guest, regardless of speed or experience, finishes their canvas before the session ends.

You will not be rushed. You will not be left behind. The host watches the room and adjusts.

What about the time before and after?

Guests are welcome to arrive early at most venues. The session itself starts on time. After the session, most guests stay for another drink, finish their conversations and take their time leaving. The painting-on-canvas time is the session duration. The night itself usually runs longer.
