Edition 2025 — Bustese Carnival

The 2025 Bustese Carnival enlivened the center of Busto Arsizio with the traditional parade of allegorical floats and costumed groups, the city masks Tarlisu and Bumbasina, and musical bands, confirming it as one of the most beloved festivals in the city's calendar.

The 2025 Bustese Carnival brought back to Busto Arsizio its most cherished tradition: the grand parade of allegorical floats and costumed groups along the streets of the historic center, with the city masks Tarlisu and Bumbasina as the protagonists of the celebration. As per tradition, on the Sunday before, the mayor symbolically handed over the keys to the city to the masks, while on Saturday, the procession of floats, cosplayers, dancers, and musical bands paraded through the center amidst the crowds. The event, organized by the Municipality and local associations, reaffirmed its role as a popular gathering for families and children.
