The Windmill Festival, or Fête du Moulin, at Arras's Moulin d'Ashecourt is a chance to watch colourful giants tower over the crowds that come to cheer them on. The giants make their way through the village, ending up at the windmill.
In addition to the giants' parade, there is a series of craft demonstrations, theatrical spectacles for children, live music and folk dancing.
Event details can change.
