Traditional shooting festivals and coronation ceremonies were held by local clubs in the Düsseldorf area. 

In Urdenbach, the Bürger-Schützenverein celebrated new royalty after Inka Garn shot the king bird and her daughter, Laura Garn, shot the prince bird. Due to achieving the title of prince for a third time, Laura Garn was designated as ‘Kaiser’ (Emperor). 

In Unterbach, the St. Hubertus Schützenbruderschaft 1870 conducted a four-day festival. Gerhard Fuhrmann secured the kingship for a third time, earning the title of ‘Schützenkaiser’. The festivities included music, parades, and community events, with Lars and Sabine Schweden serving as the reigning royal pair during the event.
