Question 1

Is Pink Moonlight Dreams  good for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pink Moonlight Dreams  is designed to be achievable at any experience level. More satisfying than it looks difficult — Marissa  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. Marissa  is a real local artist — not a teacher running a curriculum — and this event happens at CAVU Kitchen & Bar at the Hilton Vancouver Airport, 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

Is this good for a girls night or bachelorette party in Richmond?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Pink Moonlight Dreams  is a Paint Nite favourite for girls nights in Richmond. Everyone paints their own canvas, so there's always something to laugh about at the end. If you're planning a bachelorette party or a larger group, private events of 10+ get reserved seating and a custom experience.

Question 4

What's Marissa  like as an instructor?

Accepted Answer

Marissa  is a real local artist based in Richmond — not a franchise employee or a corporate hire. In Richmond, 10 out of 19 Paint Nite guests rated their instructor as amazing. Tanya M. said: 'It’s super fun. Exposing your inner child makes it even better.'

Question 5

What's CAVU Kitchen & Bar at the Hilton Vancouver Airport like?

Accepted Answer

CAVU Kitchen & Bar at the Hilton Vancouver Airport is a local venue in Richmond — 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.

Question 6

Are there more Paint Nite events in Richmond?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we have 52 upcoming events in Richmond this month.

Question 7

Is Pink Moonlight Dreams  a seasonal painting?

Accepted Answer

Pink Moonlight Dreams  is a spring painting — a fresh seasonal pick that captures the energy of the season.

Question 8

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 Richmond, you're in the right place. Welcome back.

Question 9

What's included in my ticket for this event?

Accepted Answer

Your ticket to Pink Moonlight Dreams  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 Marissa . Drinks and food are ordered separately from CAVU Kitchen & Bar at the Hilton Vancouver Airport — you pay the venue directly for anything you eat or drink.

Question 10

How long is Pink Moonlight Dreams ?

Accepted Answer

CAVU Kitchen & Bar at the Hilton Vancouver Airport's doors open at 6:30 AM, 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 Marissa  starts the painting.

Question 11

What's the cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

You can reschedule your ticket to any other Paint Nite event up to 24 hours before this one starts. After that, tickets are locked — no refunds or changes. If Paint Nite cancels this event for any reason, you'll receive a full automatic refund.

Question 12

What does "Guaranteed to Run" mean?

Accepted Answer

This event has reached our minimum attendance threshold and is guaranteed to run. If we ever have to cancel a guaranteed event, every ticket holder receives a full automatic refund plus a free ticket to a future Paint Nite — no questions asked. The only exception is weather or force majeure, where full refunds are issued but free tickets are not.
