Basel Fasnacht - Waggis in the wild
Tweet

The Monday and Wednesday afternoons of Basler Fasnacht see thousands of people flock to the streets of Basel for the Parades. Coming from around Switzerland and further afield - the Waggis and the Lanterns are both highlights of the cortege.
The Waggis are, of course, unafraid of humans and can often be seen out and about "mingling" with the crowds and chucking confetti around the place with reckless abandon.
