The label is not stored inside the event table, only the index of your 
selected element. To show the according value, you have to create a CASE 
statement like this:

###TX_CALEXTENDED_CAL_DISTRICT###

plugin.tx_cal_controller.view.event.event.tx_calextended_cal_district = CASE
view.event.event.tx_calextended_cal_district {
     key.field = tx_calextended_cal_district
     1 = TEXT
     1.value = Bezirk 1
     1.lang.en = District 1
     2 = TEXT
     2.value = Bezirk 2
     2.lang.en = District 2
     3 = TEXT
     3.value = Bezirk 3
     3.lang.en = District 3
     4 = TEXT
     4.value = Bezirk 4
     4.lang.en = District 4
     5 = TEXT
     5.value = Bezirk 5
     5.lang.en = District 5
}

Another option could be to define a label marker "###DISCTRICT_LABEL###" 
and fill it through some TS logic:

plugin.tx_cal_controller._LOCAL_LANG.default.l_event_district = Bezirk
plugin.tx_cal_controller._LOCAL_LANG.en.l_event_district = District

Please have a look at the TS of 
plugin.tx_cal_controller.view.create_event edit_event confirm_event.
There are many fields you could take as an example.

And please add your field to rights.create.event.additionalFields =
else it wont get saved ;)
