The annual Pokémon GO Fest 2025 is set to captivate Trainers across Asia, America, and Europe this summer, with Niantic rolling out a slew of exciting rewards and experiences. Dive into the details about the upcoming festivities, how to snag your tickets, and what bonus rewards await you.

Pokémon GO Fest 2025 Invites All Trainers

Niantic is thrilled to invite Trainers worldwide to the much-anticipated Pokémon GO Fest 2025, kicking off this summer! The in-person events will commence on May 29th and will be hosted at the following stunning locations:

• May 29 - June 1 in Osaka, Japan (Expo ‘70 Commemorative Park)
• June 6 - June 8 in Jersey City, New Jersey, USA (Liberty State Park)
• June 13 - June 15 in Paris, France (Parc de Sceaux)

A major highlight this year is the debut of the elusive Steam Pokémon, Volcanion. Ticket holders at any of these events will have a unique opportunity to encounter Volcanion through Special Research. However, remember that regardless of how many tickets you purchase, you're limited to one encounter with Volcanion. Additional Special Research stories will reward you with Volcanion Candy instead.

Tickets for these regional extravaganzas can be secured via the official Niantic Pokémon GO website at the following prices:
