Three-day Schützenfest of the Hude marksmen's association from June 12th to 14th, 2026
The Schützenfest Hude is the traditional club festival of the Hude marksmen's association. In 2026, the weekend of June 12th to 14th will be celebrated at the Schützenhaus (marksmen's club house) on Schützenstraße — over three days with a classic marksmen's program and a colorful mix of events.
The date coincides with the Klosterbeben festival at the Waldstadion Hude — those looking for rock music will find it there, while those who follow traditional marksmen's customs will be in the right place at the Schützenverein Hude. Free admission to the public program.
The Hude Marksmen's Association is one of the established marksmen's associations in the municipality of Hude (Oldenburg). It maintains the Schützenhaus with shooting ranges on Schützenstraße — an address that owes its name to its traditional roots. The annual Schützenfest is the highlight of the club's year.
With three days of festivities, the Hude festival is generously laid out. Bird shooting, king shooting, festive procession, king's dinner, family day, and dance evening are spread across the weekend. Brass bands and festival orchestras accompany the program.
The exact daily schedule will be communicated during the festival week. Usually, Friday is for the opening with the conclusion of the king shooting and the festival evening, Saturday for the festive procession and the main social program, and Sunday for the family program and the king's proclamation. The social evening program takes place in the festival tent at the Schützenhaus.
As the Schützenfest 2026 takes place at the same time as the Klosterbeben at the Waldstadion Hude, both formats benefit from mutual visibility. They appeal to different target groups — and make the second weekend of June 2026 a festival weekend for the municipality of Hude.
The Schützenfest Hude 2026 runs from June 12th to 14th at the Schützenhaus on Schützenstraße. Three days of program with classic highlights: king shooting, festive procession, king's dinner, family day, and dance evening. Free admission to the public program.
Organizer: Hude Marksmen's Association.
