Edition 2025 — Villanova Carnival

In 2025, the Villanova Carnival once again brought Villanova Monferrato to life with its traditional masquerade parade. From the gathering in Piazza Finazzi to the burning of the Gipin in the Via Alessandria square, the festival organized by the Pro Loco brought together families, children, and masked groups amidst music, bean stew, and carnival sweets, confirming it as a deeply felt event for the Monferrato community.

The 2025 edition of the Villanova Carnival renewed the ritual of one of the most beloved local festivals in the Casale Monferrato area in Villanova Monferrato (AL). The Pro Loco organized the customary masquerade parade with a gathering in Piazza Finazzi and a procession through the town streets, led by traditional masks and accompanied by the band.

As every year, the day concluded in the Via Alessandria square with the trial and burning of the Gipin, followed by the distribution of fagiolata, carnival sweets, and games for children, including the breaking of the pignatte. A participatory festival that confirmed the vitality of the Villanova carnival traditions.
