Shooting festival in a small district
Wittensand is one of the smaller districts of the Saterland municipality and is located in the northern district of Cloppenburg. The Schützenfest Wittensand is one of several local shooting festivals that take place in the Saterland municipality during the summer. Unlike the festivals in the main towns, the program here is concentrated on a single day – a conscious decision that suits the size and structure of the village community.
Shooting traditions on a small scale
The festival follows the classic course of a shooting festival in a condensed form: procession to pick up the reigning shooting king, march to the festival grounds, king's shooting competition, proclamation of the new royal couple, and an evening celebration in the festival tent with live music or a DJ. The family-friendly format makes the festival particularly personal and communal.
Date 2026
Saturday, July 4, 2026. Detailed information can be found in the shooting festival overview of the Nordkreis Cloppenburg and on the Saterland municipality website.
