The invention provides a sunroof apparatus which can minimize a guide rail in an automotive width direction and can reduce enlargement of the whole device in an automotive height direction. On a front-side driving shoe (80), a first driving shoe-side engagement concave portion (86) that is capable of engaging with the first engagement protrusion (73) to allow the rear portion of the support bracket (70) to be lifted up and lowered and a second driving shoe-side engagement concave portion (87) that is capable of engaging with the second engagement protrusion (74) to cause the front portion of the support bracket (70) to be lifted up and lowered and the support bracket to move integrally with the driving shoe in the vehicle front-rear direction are formed. The first and second driving shoe-side engagement concave portions and the guide-side engagement concave portion (46,47) are overlapped with each other at a position in the width direction and a part of the guide-side engagement concave portion with which the link-side engagement protrusion (53a) engages in a completely-closed state of the movable panel is disposed above or below the first driving shoe-side engagement concave portion in the vehicle height direction in a wide-open state of the movable panel.
