Once every three or four years the imaginative city of Lille is energised by a summer-long popular art thrash. The theme this year is Utopia, and interpretations running until October 2 will be many and varied — we’re talking streets full of giant green elves, a main square transformed into Alice’s Wonderland, human sculptures with fruit and veg heads, 35 exhibitions and shows, dances, costume balls and much more besides. A pass to all exhibitions costs from £34 (utopia.lille3000.com).
