Manchester International Festival returns until July 16 with new work from artists including Ryan Gander, Maxine Peake, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Tino Sehgal and Juan Mata, and music from John Grant, Angélique Kidjo, Alison Goldfrapp and more.
A major exhibition of Yayoi Kusama’s spectacular inflatables forms a centrepiece of the festival and offers the first opportunity to explore the new home of Factory International, recently renamed Aviva Studios, ahead of its official opening in October.
