Pust je pršu v Ilirsko Bistrico. V nedeljo 10. februarja 2013 se je številnemu občinstvu po mestnih ulicah Ilirske Bistrice predstavilo 22 pustnih skupin. Na tem videoposnetku je predstavljenih deset ...pustnih skupin. Iz Zabič je prišla pustna skupina, ki je predstavila “Ledeno dobo v Kočaniji”. Iz Jasena je pritekla “Vjlka wuoda”. Pustna skupina iz Ilirske Bistrice se je predstavila z “Indijanci”, iz Dolnjega Zemona z “Cirkusanti”, iz Kosez s Snežaki. Iz Nadanjega sela so pritekli “Backi”, iz Šmihelske doline pa “Pavi in pavline”. Pribrenčale so tudi čebele in čebelarji iz Kala pri Pivki. Iz sosednje Hrvaške pa so nas obiskale mačkare “Cigani” iz Šapjan in “Pirati” iz Pasjaka. (Vladimir Vinšek)
Borovo gostüvanje, a wedding with a pine tree, is a Carnival tradition characteristic of the region of Prekmurje in northeast Slovenia~of the Porabje in Hungary and the area extending toward ...northeast Hungaria~and of Austrian Burgenland and Styria. The custom was traditionally held if there had not been a single wedding in the village during fášenk time (the period between Christmas and Shrovetide). In the present time, this is no longer relevant. The tradition is recreated in order to collect funds for village matters, particularly for the local fire brigade~to keep the tradition going~and to attract tourists. Elderly villagers say that the principal objective has always been to do something for the village and its development.This text focuses on the village of Predanovci, where the custom had been observed by this author in 2002. Yet the author did not limit herself merely to this event but analyzed previous ones as well~examined the ways in which the older generation of the villagers still remembered the custom from their younger days~their relation to village traditions~and their perspective on the importance of this custom in the past and at present.
Skupine korantov ponavadi spremlja eden ali več hudičev. Oblečeni so v rdeč kombinezon, na glavi pa imajo strašljivo masko z rogovi, šilastim nosom in dolgim jezikom.
Vlečenje ploha naj bi bila prvotno del plodnostne magije – ploh naj bi predstavljal moški spolni organ ali falus. Možno je, da je bilo vlečenje ploha način izganjanja mrtve in neplodne zime in ...klicanje rodovitne pomladi. Neplodno zimo predstavlja slamnata lutka, rodovitno pomlad pa drevo – ploh, ki ga vlečejo fantje iz gozda v vas.
