About this event
"Shisui Shinshu Festival 2026" will be held on Saturday, December 5, 2026, at Iinuma Honke in Shisui Town, Chiba Prefecture. At this event, three neighboring breweries—Iinuma Honke's "Kinoene," Nabedana's "Fudo/Jinyu" in Kozaki Town, and the winery "SAWA WINES" in Yachimata—will showcase freshly brewed sake and wine crafted with devotion. In the ticketed standing bar (kaku-uchi) area, visitors can sample new brews from each maker along with famous sake from across Japan. In addition, an event-exclusive Junmai Daiginjo will be sold in a limited run of 1,000 bottles, and a food stall area by local dining establishments will be featured. On stage, performances of Japanese taiko drums, Tsugaru shamisen, and the Shisui Junior High School brass band will enliven the venue. A grassy free-space area for children and free brewery tours showcasing the behind-the-scenes sake brewing process (first-come, first-served) are also available. Admission is free, but alcoholic beverages are served in exchange for a booklet of ten 200-yen tickets. Advance tickets can be purchased via JRE MALL Tickets for 1,700 yen (tax included) and come with an ochoko sake cup gift coupon. Same-day tickets are 2,000 yen (tax included). On the day of the event, select Shiosai limited express trains will make temporary stops at JR Minami-Shisui Station for convenient access. As there is no parking or shuttle bus service, arriving by public transportation is recommended.
