Season & hours
Name: 米子がいな祭
Date & time: 8/7 (Fri)–8/9 (Sun) Time TBA
Venue: 米子市・米子市街地(米子港ほか)
2026年の米子がいな祭は8月7日(金)から9日(日)までの3日間、米子市街地と米子港を中心に開催されます。祭りの名の由来にもなった「がいな(大きい・立派なという意味の方言)」にふさわしく、伝統の「がいな太鼓」の勇壮な演奏や、地域団体によるパレード、催しが会場を盛り上げます。中海に面した港町ならではの開放的な雰囲気の中、夜には花火が上がることもあり、米子の夏を締めくくるにふさわしい熱気に包まれます。
Tips
会場周辺は当日交通規制がかかるため、公共交通機関の利用が安心です。港周辺は夜になると涼しい風が吹くことがあるので、薄手の羽織ものがあると快適です。荒天時の開催可否は主催者の発表を確認しましょう。
Tips
On festival day, popular restaurants tend to get crowded in the evening, so arriving early is recommended. It's wise to confirm access to the venue in advance.
Best time to visit
About 50 minutes required. Eating before the crowds arrive at the festival allows for a calm meal.
