What ae some of your traditions you celebrate today on the … wait is it really called ‚arrival of the Three wise men‘? why not kings… anyway, moving on 😅
I Just ate some Dreikönigskuchen, a Swiss tradition. (englisch translation would be ‚three kings cake’, though it‘s just chocolate or raisins bread).
There wasn’t a king inside my bread though, so I didn’t get to wear the crown 👑

The holiday is Epiphany (at least I know the closest Sunday to it is always called Epiphany Sunday).
My family doesn't have any traditions for it and I honestly didn't even know it was today. I'm a bad Christian
In France we eat what we call a "galette des rois", that we eat during the Épiphanie ( the name of this holyday )
It's generally some sort of almond based pie
And in this pie there is a little ceramic figurine
If you happen to be the one to find it in your slice, you are proclaimed the king or queen of the day ( and you can get a nice paper crown )

Me and my family don't celebrate it, I don't like this dessert much and we are atheist so not much value to us in terms of religion

I know that it is also customary to go to church on that day tho
Oh, I heard about that tradition!

I don't really do anything myself... I don't even know if we have such traditions in Germany
