As the rhythm of the Unovan events slows down, Pokémon Go enthusiasts can start gearing up for an exciting summer event. Pokémon Go Fest is just around the corner, scheduled to light up June with a series of international gatherings.
This much-anticipated annual festival kicks off with in-person events in three vibrant cities. It begins in Osaka, Japan, from May 29 to June 1. Then, the festivities move to Jersey City, NJ, from June 6 to 8. Soon after, Pokémon fans in Paris, France, will join the fun from June 13 to 15. Following these local celebrations, the excitement culminates in a global event set for June 28 and 29.
Eager participants can now snag their tickets to these in-person events. Additionally, an exclusive global experience can be unlocked with a $15 ticket, offering a chance to encounter the mythical Pokémon Volcanion. Meanwhile, everyone participating will have the opportunity to catch the rare “crowned” forms of Zacian and Zamazenta, the iconic mascots of Pokémon Sword and Shield.
There’s more to look forward to, especially for those who act fast. If you purchase the global ticket by April 15 and log into the game between April 8 and 15, you can unlock a unique research story. This will lead to a special encounter with Skiddo—a Pokémon previously reserved for select “City Safari” events, which were only accessible in a few cities since late 2023. So, mark your calendars and get ready to dive into the Pokémon Go Fest!
