The 59th Ishikari Salmon Festival

Date and Time

2025/9/27~28

(schedule)

This is a major event in Ishikari, the "hometown of salmon," which began in 1956. It is a very popular Ishikari specialty event, featuring fresh, reasonably priced raw salmon caught in Ishikari's foreshore, "Ishikari Nabe" hotpots made with a 1000-person pot, and the dynamic "Salmon Grabbing" event. Other salmon delicacies on sale at the venue are also not to be missed.

In addition to experiences such as a helicopter flight with a panoramic view of the Ishikari River, a Hokkaido heritage site, and a "Dosanko Walk (horse-pulling experience)" where you can take a stroll through Hamanasu Hill Park while looking out at the scenery, the two days are filled with salmon, including salmon roe rice bowls and Ishikari nabe hotpots made by local shops.
