Kick-off to the Bürgerschützenfest
The Kinderschützenfest on Saturday traditionally kicks off the grand Rodenberg Bürgerschützenfest, which will shape the town in the following days. The focus is on children and young people – they take centre stage on the children's festival day. The Rodenberg Bürgerschützenverein lays the foundation for the next generation of active club life with this day.
Programme for Children
The day begins with the assembly of the young marksmen, followed by a parade through the town centre. Laser rifle competitions, skill games, and a programme centred around crowning the young royalty provide sporting challenges without real ammunition. Parents, grandparents, and siblings accompany the events from the sidelines of the competition stands and on the festival grounds.
Proclamation of the Children's King and Queen
The highlight of the day is the proclamation of the new children's king and queen, as well as their retinue. The young majesties are honoured with sashes and crowns and will represent their club until the next crowning. The festival grounds, with carousels, stalls, and food stands, transform into a small funfair, where the festival continues into the evening.
Part of the Grand Bürgerschützenfest
The Kinderschützenfest is closely linked to the main festival, which takes place in the following days. The festival grounds remain set up, and the town is decorated with birch trees and club flags. Visitors to the children's day can already get a taste of the festive atmosphere that will envelop the entire town in the coming days.

Children's Festival Day
On July 11, 2026, the festival grounds belong to the children and young people. Assembly at the club house, march through the decorated town centre, competition with laser rifles, and the proclamation of the new majesties – the programme follows the classic structure, but entirely in a child-friendly format.
Festival Grounds for Families
Carousels, stalls, candy stands, and food provide a festival atmosphere. Parents and grandparents experience the grounds together with the youngest marksmen, and many stay for the entire afternoon.
