Schrott has a long tradition of community feasts. members of villages and towns would come together to create a feast for all of them and celebrate Emperor's Day together and if they can give gifts to each other (usually hand crafted weapons, armor, etc).
In the larger cities, which are downed space craft converted into cities, usually depending on the earnings of the families will stay home, inviting friends over to celebrate. Mechanicus adepts who live on Schrott have an Omnissiah's day of sorts. While they don't Feast in the way the others do they go about creating gifts for each other (often trying to out do each other, which leads to many grand creations that might end up in service of the 91st)
Lights are strung around buildings and such to commemorate those who have fallen in battle for the Imperium (91st or not) with a few other decorations usually revolving around the machines fallen in service alongside the men (mostly in the form of ornately decorated pieces parts such as exhaust pipes, guns etc)
Course it doesn't help if the marauders come by and ruin the parties. but thankfully they often stay away when the towns people are all gathered together as each one is armed...

the Planet of Fellsskogar holds its annual highly illegal racing rallies, all the minor techpriests break out their fastest and most dangerous rides in order to compete in the famous redline competition.
This practice is highly dangerous and frowned upon by the arbites, any and all racers are immediately fired upon immensely adding to the danger of the race.
The winner is said to have the emperor on his side and is hidden from the higher authorities, while having the honor for the rest of the year to produce attack bikes for the Astartes chapter in the nearby region (under the table of course)

 On... on Emperor's Day, every member of the Order, no matter where in the galaxy they are, stops and holds a vigil, reaffirming our vows to complete his great Work. The day after Emperor's Day, we leave our work for a day to walk amongst the populace and teach them what we can of the Emperor, and of the teachings of Saint Raul.

Incidentally, on Eldritch, we tend to have a large ritual ceremony to gather all of the hope-energy produced by nearby Ultramar (it's only on the other side of Van Grothe's Rapidity) and feed it to the Lord Changer.

Assuming that the latter part of that is a hallucination brought on by too much fenrisian ale, how is that any different from any other day on Fenris?

Here at Ordo Chronos, we have just started to celebrate Emperor Day for about two years. Each day now we go back in time and remove a Primarch who has betrayed the Emperor. So far we have wipe out two from existance.

That's, like, totally inspiring. But, uh, you don't kill anybody on Emperor's Day? Anybody at all? Not even a little?
I mean, I guess you guys get to kill heretics and traitors and mutants and xenos the other 364 days of the year, but Emperor's Day without executions is like -- gosh, I dunno -- breakfast without recaf, I guess, or going an entire day without even a single moment of gut-clenching terror.
So. Weird.

Aboard the Doomstrider we hang stockings along the plasma heat exchangers, drink hot cider made from the terran apples in the arborium and exchange presents worth more than the tithes of some imperial worlds.
The crew is allowed shore leave and each given 50 thrones to spend on whatever they like. And searched for weapons when they get back on the ship.

In our beautiful little world Mejis, we celebrate Emperor's Day humbly by lighting thousands of candles in the street. We also drink some mulled wine and sing hymnals approved by the Ecclesiarchy. The rich give a few presents to the poor, and everyone goes socialising on the illuminated streets (The candles, of course, are made from live heretics and mutants).

*In case there's any confusion, it's not the Doom Harvesters that celebrate Emperor's day, or even inhabit Kar'vahoth, rather it's a human populace, from which recruitments are made, and traitor regiments are taken.*
I think my planet shall start a new Emperor's day tradition:
Burn the Un-witch!
We find an Un-witch (Be'lakor damned heretic!), dump it in a warped hive city hell-hole, give it a 30 minute head start (and free running time), and then chase it down, hog roast it, and eat it.
One Un-witch hunt per hive spire! We have far too many rebel scum...

I assume you mean on Isha's Gift day? Emperor's Day doesn't translate in our language as we don't believe in a non-military singular leader holding a civilization of a billion planets in an iron hand...or Calgar's superhand...or whatever...
But we celebrate by lamenting on the prior century and what it meant for our cause in returning the Eldar to the glory days. Well, that and we play a lot of Apples to Apples. That gak is downright fun.

Isn't Apples to Apples heresy, tho? The REAL Imperium-approved version is "Skulls to Skulls," I'm pretty sure.

On this special day we also send pictures of ourselfs without armour to all our battle brothers! And well.....Since you asked. On this day we also take time to say sorry to all the space misonaries we blew in the last year

There's, um, a lot of homoerotic stuff going on with the Astartes, it seems. Not that I'm surprised but, um, guys, nobody wants to see you naked. Really.
Also I just realized that given the Sisters of Battle fetish a lot of fanboys seem to have in real life, in the actual WH40K universe there'd be people selling "Sexy Sororitas" costumes and even entire SOB-themed brothels..... Mmmm, so burnable.
