Start of the Schützenfest Season in Northern Cloppenburg
The Schützenfest Barßelermoor is one of the first Schützenfeste of the season in the northern district of Cloppenburg. The organizer is the Kleinkaliber-Schützenverein Barßelermoor (KKS), which represents the Barßelermoor district in the municipality of Barßel. The municipality of Barßel has several shooting clubs that hold their festivals throughout spring and summer – the festival in Barßelermoor marks the start in May.
Club Life and Traditions
Schützenfeste are deeply rooted in the Oldenburg Münsterland and southern East Frisia regions. They combine competitive shooting, religious tradition (festival mass, fraternity spirit), and village club life into a multi-day folk festival. The KKS Barßelermoor upholds this tradition through the voluntary commitment of its members.
King's Shoot and Festival Weekend
The King's Shoot, where the new shooting king is determined, takes place on April 26th, 2026. The actual Schützenfest follows two weeks later on May 10th and 11th, 2026. The highlights include the King's procession, a parade through the village center, the proclamation and coronation of the new royal couple, and a dance evening in the festival tent.
Date and Information
Current information and the detailed program for 2026 will be published by the KKS Barßelermoor at kks-barsselermoor.de.
