Schützenfest Lüben

Lüben – Village in the Wittingen Region

Lüben is one of the numerous districts of the town of Wittingen in the Gifhorn district. Like many villages in the region, it maintains a lively club life, with the Schützenverein at its center. The annual Schützenfest is the highlight of the club's year and one of the most important dates in the Lüben village calendar.

Three Days of Schützenfest

From June 5th to 7th, 2026, the celebration will last for three days. Opening on Friday evening, shooting competitions and the proclamation of the king on Saturday, and a festive parade and king's banquet on Sunday characterize the classic program. On the Schützenplatz (festival grounds), the marquee, food stalls, and carousels provide the typical Schützenfest atmosphere.

Lina Maly in the Lübener Tenne

An exceptional program item is the concert by singer-songwriter Lina Maly on June 8th, 2026, starting at 5:30 PM in the Lübener Tenne. Lina Maly is one of the best-known German-language singer-songwriters of the younger generation. With her clear voice, soulful lyrics, and a mix of pop and folk, she has built a loyal following since her solo debut. The concert is combined with a festival buffet – a sophisticated format that merges Schützenfest and culture.

Lübener Tenne as a Venue

The Lübener Tenne is a converted historic barn that serves as an event location for concerts, weddings, and festivals. With its rustic yet modern atmosphere, it is ideally suited for singer-songwriter concerts with catering. The Tenne has established itself in recent years as one of the most attractive venues in the Wittingen region.

Tradition and Cultural Anspruch

The combination of a classic Schützenfest and a high-quality concert with a buffet is a format that is increasingly shaping the villages in the Wittingen region. It shows that Schützenvereine are willing to modernize without abandoning tradition.
