Provided is a high-pressure vessel manufacturing method including: molding a liner having a pleated part; forming a fiber-reinforced part on an outer circumferential side of the liner; curving the liner and the fiber-reinforced part; and pressurizing and heating the liner and the fiber-reinforced part. In the molding the liner, the height of first pleats of the pleated part that are disposed on the inner side of the curve relative to an axis is set to be smaller than a height of second pleats of the pleated part that are disposed on the outer side of the curve relative to the axis.
