Write4Gold – Graffiti

We’re excited to announce that Write4Gold West Europe Heats, the most popular graffiti art contest in the world is coming to HUB 2009 on Saturday 23rd May. Write4Gold have teamed up with Zap Graffiti Arts to host crews across the UK, France, Holland, Belgium and Luxemburg to compete in a number of categories inc Freestyle Throw Ups, Freestyle Handstyles and Freestyle Sketching to make it through to the Big Finals at Splash Festival, Germany on 11th July.

The art will be displayed on a massive 500 metre graffiti wall, with over 80 of the best graffiti artists in the world competing…… the biggest ever seen at HUB before!

That means teams from France, Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg should sign up and come to Liverpool to compete! Its been a bumpy road for UK Teams in Write4Gold, only once before has there been a Write4Gold competition in the UK, in 2006 when it took place at Victoria Park in London. Back then the winner was Wordplay Crew from Cambridge who went on the European Finals at Splash Festival in Germany, only to be placed outside the top rankings. In 2008, a young London crew named RT travelled all the way to Munster, Germany to represent as the only team from the UK in the biggest Write4Gold of all time, the West Europe qualification 2008. RT placed in the top 2 of 28 teams and qaulified for the European Finals, and with a 2nd place on from there on to the World Final 2008 where they finished honourably, but out of the top 3. Who will win the 2009 competition and go on to the big finals at Splash Festival 2009?
