Edition 2025 — Gioeubia (Zobia)

In 2025, Cardano al Campo once again renewed the Gioeubia ritual, with the bonfire of the effigy in the square, risotto with luganega, and the participation of schools. The evening, organized by the Municipality and the Pro Loco, confirmed the vitality of one of the most cherished traditions of the Varesotto region.

The 2025 edition of the Gioeubia of Cardano al Campo followed the script of the Varese tradition: the gathering in the square on the last Thursday of January, the lighting of the large straw effigy bonfire, and the conviviality around the fire with saffron risotto, luganega, and mulled wine. As is customary, the town's schools participated with drawings and stories dedicated to the legend of the old woman, while the Municipality and the Pro Loco coordinated the organization. An evening that brought the community together to bid farewell to winter and welcome the new year according to the ancient custom.
