Hurts so good presents - PAINTWORX, Barry.

Central park barry, Barry, CF63 4RW
Saturday 22nd August 2026
Barry is where the Hurts So Good – PAINTWORX Graffiti & Street Art Festival story begins.

This is our first stop, our hometown, Barry, and the place we'll always come back to. While we'll be taking the festival to new towns and cities along the way, we're building something bigger than one weekend.

PAINTWORX is a celebration of graffiti, street art, live music, creativity, and culture, bringing people together through a growing community wherever the festival goes.

Join us on 22nd & 23rd August 2026 at Central Park, Barry for the very first chapter.

Across two unforgettable days, expect live graffiti and street art, live music, interactive workshops, independent food and clothing vendors, and a festival atmosphere. 

Come and say you were there from the start.
