Edition 2025 — Vespolate Carnival

In 2025, the Vespolate Carnival once again brought the small town in the Bassa Novarese to life with its traditional parade organized by the Pro Loco. Masked groups and allegorical floats traveled through the town streets, from the meeting point on Via Tonale to Piazza Martiri and Largo Matteotti, renewing the ritual of handing over the town keys to the historic masks Panscia Rusa and Bela Giplon.

The Vespolate Carnival confirmed its traditional appointment in 2025. The Pro Loco of Vespolate organized the customary parade of masked groups and allegorical floats, which crossed the town center amidst confetti, music, and joy.

As every year, the procession started from Via Tonale to reach Piazza Martiri and Largo Matteotti, where the symbolic moment of handing over the town keys to the two historic local masks, Panscia Rusa and Bela Giplon, was renewed, serving as the protagonists of the Vespolate Carnival in the heart of the Novara region, in Piedmont.
