The traditions and popular culture Bosa, both civil and religious, offer visitors moments of great charm. The first event of the year is the Carnival characterized by satire and grotesque taste that attracts many curious visitors.
The Carnival here, as in many other places of Sardinia, is very sensitive , involves the whole community and retains the character of party spontaneous unorganized.
The festivities begin a week before Carnival Thursday, when bright begging groups are roaming the streets of the old singing satirical songs in exchange for gifts and food.
But the party comes alive in the last four days that protagonists two forms: "s'attitadora", a kind of mourner dressed in mourning, who sings dirges in the morning argument with satirical and explicit sexual innuendo, and "giolzi", coming in at night and running from the scene side to side capture the audience and other ritually Giolzi and illuminate their genitals with allusive phrases.
Carnival Bosa is undoubtedly one of the most exciting festivals , hilarious and transgressive of Sardinia.
