Provided is a luminescent wheel for a projector, which has a novel structure in which a phosphor layer is hard to break even if its thickness is reduced; a manufacturing method therefor; and a light emitting device for a projector. A luminescent wheel for a projector includes: a phosphor layer (11) which has a first principal surface (11a) and a second principal surface (11b) located on an opposite side to the first principal surface (11a) and is capable of being excited by the entry of excitation light to emit fluorescence; a first glass layer (12) provided on the first principal surface (11a) of the phosphor layer (11); and a second glass layer (13) provided on the second principal surface (11b) of the phosphor layer (11).
