You have to get up early if you don't want to miss the Zug Chesslete, because the starting signal on the Landsgemeindeplatz sounds at 5 o'clock in the morning. And you have to be persistent. Because the wild hustle and bustle lasts until the early hours of the next day. Throughout the day, the Guggenmusigen parade from square to square, delighting the carnival revellers with their cacophonies. Warm up with "Chesselwy" at one of the many stalls or in a warm, carnival-themed restaurant.
