Graffiti Street
About
Graffiti Street (Graffiti Alley) in Ghent is a vibrant open‑air canvas where local and international street artists splash colour on the walls of Werregarenstraat. The alley is free to enter at any time of day and offers visitors a spontaneous and ever‑changing visual feast. The city’s supportive attitude toward street art means the works are protected and respected, making the walk a safe and inclusive experience for people of all ages. A brief stroll—usually around an hour—will let you admire the rotating murals, the quirky installations, and the playful street‑art map ‘Sorry, not sorry’ that guides you through the city’s other graffiti hotspots.
