The next one will be on June 12, 2026. The imperial procession, covering a total distance of 23km, will parade through the heart of Tokyo, traversing Chiyoda, Chuo, Minato, and Shinjuku wards. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ About the Shinkosai Festival ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The procession that parades through the streets during the Shinkosai Festival is divided into four large "delegations" (teidan), and the total length is approximately 300m. • 1st Delegation This delegation, including the "Kankodori Dashi" (Kankodori Float), which is based on the legend that no one beat the drum (kanko) to express dissatisfaction with the government, and a chicken landed on the drum, spectacularly announces the start of the festival. • 2nd Delegation "Maihime" (dancing girls) dressed in miko (shrine maiden) attire and "Gakunin" (musicians) playing gagaku (ancient Japanese court music) join the procession. • 3rd Delegation This consists of two horin (portable shrines) and one mikoshi (portable shrine) carrying the deities. This is the most important delegation. • 4th Delegation Seven floats join this delegation. In addition to the "Flower Float" and "Elephant Float," this year the "Shrimp Float" will make its debut. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What you can do with the app ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 【1】Real-time GPS tracking of the procession Instantly check the current location of the 500-person, 23km procession on a map.
