A curtain airbag apparatus in which a curtain airbag can be inflated quickly downward without increasing the output of an inflator. A guide rod for guiding the rear end of a curtain airbag when the curtain airbag is inflated from a roof side downward is attached to a C-pillar of a motor vehicle. The rear end of the curtain airbag is connected to the guide rod via a connecting belt. A space for allowing passage of the connecting belt is defined between a cabin-side surface of the C-pillar and an edge of a pillar garnish. The space is closed by a lip portion of a weather strip mounted to the C-pillar. The connecting belt includes a metallic wire and a rubber tube.
