Question 1

Is Sat Oct 31 - 6p good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Sat Oct 31 - 6p is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Paint breaks every step down clearly. Most of our guests have never picked up a brush before, and they leave with something they're genuinely proud of. Worth knowing: Paint Nite events happen at real bars and restaurants, not studios — it's a night out that happens to involve painting.

Question 2

How is Paint Nite different from a painting class?

Accepted Answer

A painting class teaches you technique. Paint Nite gives you a finished painting and a good night. Paint is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at Poco Inn & Suites Hotel, a real local spot, not a studio. Paint Nite invented this format in 2012 and has sold more than 10 million tickets. The trade-off is honest: lighting varies, it can get loud, and the person at the next easel is a stranger. That's the point. It's more of a night out than a class.

Question 3

What's Paint like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Paint is a real local artist based in Port Coquitlam — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. 7 out of 12 guests who've painted with Paint say the instruction was amazing.  . said: 'Long was a fantastic teacher. Me and my wife had a great time with our class. He made the entire experience one to remember.'

Question 4

What's Poco Inn & Suites Hotel like?

Accepted Answer

Poco Inn & Suites Hotel is a local venue in Port Coquitlam — a real local spot, not a dedicated painting studio. Paint Nite events happen at places like this by design — venues with character, regulars, and a bar. It can get lively. That's what makes it a night out rather than a class. 30% of guests who've attended events at Poco Inn & Suites Hotel rated the atmosphere highly.

Question 5

Are there more Paint Nite events in Port Coquitlam?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 29 upcoming events in Port Coquitlam this month.

Question 6

Whatever happened to Yaymaker?

Accepted Answer

Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same events, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you used to attend Yaymaker events in Port Coquitlam, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Question 7

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Sat Oct 31 - 6p includes the canvas, all the paint you'll need, the use of brushes and an apron during the event, and step-by-step instruction from Paint. Drinks and food are ordered separately from Poco Inn & Suites Hotel — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 8

How long is Sat Oct 31 - 6p?

Accepted Answer

Poco Inn & Suites Hotel's doors open at 12:00 PM, the event starts at 6:00 PM. We suggest showing up by 5:30 PM to give yourself time to pick your seats, get a drink and maybe a bite before Paint starts the painting.
