Pokémon Go Fest is coming back to Europe, this time setting up in Paris

Pokémon Go enthusiasts across Europe have reason to celebrate as the beloved Pokémon Go Fest is making its way back to the continent, and this time, it's landing in the romantic city of Paris. Mark your calendars for June 13th to 15th because it's going to be a weekend filled with Pokémon Go excitement, and tickets are now available for purchase!

For those new to the event, Pokémon Go Fest is an immersive live gathering where thousands of players converge in a designated area. Ticket holders will enjoy exclusive access to Special Research and the unique opportunity to encounter Volcanion for the first time. The event will feature specially-marked routes, guiding participants to explore Paris's iconic landmarks and picturesque sites.

But it's not just about exploring the outdoors. Attendees can also look forward to seeing Pokémon Mascots and renowned trainers along the route. If you need a break, relax in the team lounges before diving into the competitive action at the PvP battleground. And don't miss out on the exclusive event merchandise available during the festival!

While Pokémon Go Fest might not rival a major sporting event in scale, it still attracts a significant crowd and provides a substantial boost to the local economy. Paris's hosting of the event is a testament to the widespread recognition and enthusiasm for Pokémon Go and its fans, as well as a positive sign for Niantic.

Keep an eye out for more Pokémon Go Fest events later this year, with Osaka and New Jersey gearing up to host their own celebrations, where fans will strive to live up to the iconic rallying cry, "Catch 'em all!"

And if you're not in Paris, Osaka, or New Jersey, but rather in Chile or India, you can still join the fun with the new Wayfarer Challenge. Contribute to the Pokémon Go community by nominating local landmarks and scenic spots to become new Pokéstops and Gyms, spreading the joy of Pokémon Go to even more players around the world!
