SSV Adelheide
The Sports Shooters Association Adelheide (SSV) is rooted in the Adelheide district and is one of the larger member associations of the Ganderkeseer Schützenbund. The federal shooting festival of the Schützenbund also takes place at the Adelheide shooting range at the end of May — making SSV infrastructurally central for the entire association.
Three-Day Festival Format
With three festival days, the Adelheide Schützenfest follows the classic North German format of large Schützenfeste, where competition, social program, and family day unfold over several days. Saturday, Sunday, and Monday each have their own focus.
King's Proclamation on Festival Monday
Unlike most associations in the Ganderkeseer Schützenbund, SSV Adelheide proclaims the new monarchs only on festival Monday — on August 24, 2026, at 7 p.m. This gives Monday the character of a third highlight day, on which the shooters, the outgoing court, and the festival guests gather once more.
Schützenfest Adelheide — edition 2026
The three-day Schützenfest 2026 of SSV Adelheide runs from August 22 to 24 in Adelheide (municipality of Ganderkesee). Classic North German Schützenfest with king's proclamation on festival Monday at 7 p.m. — a special feature that distinguishes the format from the Sunday conclusion of most other associations.
Free admission to the public program. Member association of the Ganderkeseer Schützenbund.
Adelheide as Federal Location
With its shooting range, Adelheide is a central location for the Ganderkeseer Schützenbund — the federal shooting festival also takes place here at the end of May. The SSV club festival in August complements this function with its own club Schützenfest.
