Boye and Jeversen — Celle's Double District

The districts of Boye and Jeversen belong to the city of Celle and have shared a common shooting community for a long time. Like many Celle districts, Boye and Jeversen have preserved their village identity and maintain their own clubs — the shooting association is the most defining of these. The annual Schützenfest brings the two districts together for a joint weekend.

Start of the Schützenfest Season in May

With the date on May 2nd and 3rd, 2026, Boye/Jeversen is among the earliest Schützenfeste of the season in the Celle district. In April, king's shooting events primarily take place; the first major Schützenfeste open the season at the beginning of May. Boye/Jeversen is one of these opening dates, particularly appreciated by regular attendees and friendly clubs.

Program Over Two Days

The festival is designed for two days — more compact than the four-day major Schützenfeste, but with the full spectrum of traditional program points. Saturday: Festival opening, king's shooting, festival ball in the marquee. Sunday: Festival parade through the districts of Boye and Jeversen, proclamation of the new king and queen, morning pint to round off the festivities.

Shooting Tradition in the Celle District

The Celle district has one of the densest shooting club structures in Germany. From farmer shooters to traditional city clubs, from villages to the district town — there is hardly a weekend from May to September without a Schützenfest. The Celle District Shooting Association (KSV) coordinates the events. Boye/Jeversen fits into this calendar as a small, charming village Schützenfest at the start of the season.
