The annual Pokémon GO Fest 2025 is set to bring excitement to Asia, America, and Europe this summer, with Niantic offering a plethora of rewards and experiences. Dive in to learn all about the upcoming events, how to secure your tickets, and the exclusive bonuses you can enjoy.

Pokémon GO Fest 2025 Invites All Trainers

Niantic is thrilled to invite Trainers from around the globe to the Pokémon GO Fest 2025, which kicks off this summer! Starting on May 29th, you can join the festivities in person at these exciting 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 of this year's event is the debut of the elusive Steam Pokémon, Volcanion. Ticket holders at any of the events will have a chance to encounter Volcanion through Special Research. Keep in mind, however, that regardless of how many tickets you purchase, you'll only get one encounter with Volcanion. Additional Special Research stories will reward you with Volcanion Candy instead.

Tickets for these regional events are available on the official Niantic Pokémon GO website at the following prices:
