Notes from the last check
Chienbäse is an annual torch-and-bonfire procession through the old town of Liestal (Basel-Landschaft, Switzerland) on the evening of Fasnacht Sunday; the official society site confirms it is active and gives the rule, but no 2027 date. The candidate list's Bern location is incorrect.
