Regional festivals and seafood events in Miyagi

Overview

Miyagi Prefecture has hosted several regional festivals and seafood-focused events aimed at cultural preservation and economic revitalization.

In late September, Aqua Ignis Sendai announced the ‘Aqua Ignis Sendai Imoni Festival 2026,’ which features a new coastal-themed dish called ‘Umi no Te Imoni.’ This seafood-based stew uses Ishinomaki salt and cod to honor the historical roots of the dish. The festival also includes a miso-based ‘Date Imoni’ using local Miyagi ingredients.

In mid-October, various activities took place across the prefecture, including the ‘Ishinomaki Great Catch Festival’ seafood auction and the ‘Sanriku/Tokiwa Seafood Happiness Market’ in Sendai, which supports local producers. Additionally, the ‘Yamada Daimyo Procession’ in Kesennuma continued its tradition of a parade through the Yamada district, a practice originating over 200 years ago as a prayer for peace.
