French comedian Arnaud Leray performed street mime and created improvised caricature portraits for audience members on the spot.

"On the streets, everything is possible. I can sing, I can dance, I can draw with the audience right in front of me. I think performing on the streets is cooler than performing in a theater," he said.

Italian one-man-band performer Galiro carried over ten kilograms of custom-made musical equipment on his back, combining a guitar with pots, pans, bowls and other everyday items to create the lively sound effects of a full band. As he walked through the streets and alleys playing music along the way, passersby couldn't help but stop, and children danced to the rhythm.
