Mark your calendars for June 13th to 15th, as the city transforms into a Pokémon paradise. Tickets are now on sale, so don't miss out on securing your spot!
Pokémon Go Fest is a thrilling live event that attracts thousands of players to a designated area. Ticket holders gain access to exclusive Special Research and the opportunity to encounter the mythical Pokémon, Volcanion, for the very first time. Specially-designed routes will lead participants through Paris, showcasing the city's iconic landmarks and breathtaking natural sites.
But it's not all about exploring on foot. Along the way, you'll encounter Pokémon Mascots and renowned trainers. Take a break at the team lounges before diving into the excitement of the PvP battleground. And don't forget to keep an eye out for exclusive event merchandise that you can only find at Pokémon Go Fest!
While the event may not reach the scale of major sporting events, Pokémon Go Fest typically draws significant crowds and boosts the local economy. Paris hosting this event is a testament to the widespread recognition of Pokémon Go fans' passion, which is great news for both the fans and Niantic.
Stay tuned for more Pokémon Go Fests later this year in Osaka and New Jersey, where fans will gather to fulfill the iconic goal to "Catch 'em all!"
