Date & time: 8/9 (Sun) Time TBA
Venue: 銚子市・銚港神社〜白幡神社〜銚子市役所
銚子の夏を彩る「銚子みなとまつり」の中でも大きな見どころとなる、みこしパレードです。2026年8月9日、銚港神社を出発した神輿が白幡神社を経て銚子市役所周辺まで練り歩き、威勢のよい掛け声とともに港町を活気づけます。関東最東端の港町ならではの熱気あふれる神輿渡御を、灯台や断崖、レトロな町並みをめぐった1日の締めくくりとして楽しめます。
Tips
パレードのルート周辺は交通規制が行われることがあるため、公共交通機関の利用がおすすめです。人出が多くなる時間帯もあるので、小さな子ども連れは手をつないで移動しましょう。夜は海からの風で肌寒くなることがあるので羽織ものがあると安心です。
Tips
For safety, view from designated observation spots rather than getting too close to the cliffs. During summer, protect yourself from strong sunlight with hats and bring plenty to drink. Walking from the parking area to the observation point is required.
Best time to visit
Approximately 40 minutes. Early afternoon offers beautiful shadows and contrasts as the light hits the cliffs.
