About this event

Aichi Prefecture's official travel guide lists the festival as Nagoya's October samurai parade, normally held on a Saturday and Sunday in mid-October. The 2026 parade was cancelled because the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Para Games opened the same weekend, and the city had not confirmed the parade's return for 2027 when checked; the expected window is 16 and 17 October 2027.
