The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a highly pure 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene having a purity of 99% or more even when a mixture of dimethylnaphthalene isomers containing 5 wt% or more of 2,7- dimethylnaphthalate is used as a feedstock. The method for manufacturing 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene comprises a step of performing crystallization and solid-liquid separation of a liquid primarily containing dimethylnaphthalene isomers so that the liquid is separated into a cake containing the dimethylnaphthalene isomers and a mother liquor, and a step of performing separation/purification of the cake. In the method described above, the crystallization and the solid- liquid separation are performed under the condition in which the ratio of the content of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene in the mother liquor to that of 2,7-dimethylnaphthalene therein is not less than 1 so that the content of 2,6- dimethylnaphthalene in the cake is 60% or more and that the content of 2,7-dimethylnaphthalene therein is 6.5% or less. As a result, a highly pure 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene is obtained by performing the separation/purification of the cake.
