Pokemon GO Fest 2025: Dates, Locations, and Event Details

Get ready for Pokemon GO Fest 2025! Niantic is breaking tradition by announcing the event dates early. This year's festivities will span June, with three exciting in-person locations.

Pokemon GO Fest 2025 Dates & Locations:

• Osaka, Japan: May 29th – June 1st
• Jersey City, New Jersey, USA: June 6th – June 8th
• Paris, France: June 13th – June 15th

While tickets aren't yet available, plan your travel now! Past events required choosing a specific day within the weekend window. This means flexibility is key before ticket sales open. A global GO Fest event is expected later in June or early July, though no official dates have been released.

Locations Breakdown:

This year's lineup includes returning favorites—Japan and the USA—along with a new addition: France. Spain's GO Fest location from 2024 has been replaced. A scaled-back global event is also anticipated.

What to Expect:

Specific details are scarce for now, with Niantic focusing on the upcoming GO Tour: Unova in February 2025 (New Taipei City, Taiwan & Los Angeles, CA). However, past GO Fests have featured exciting Pokemon debuts (like last year's Necrozma and Fusion mechanic), numerous raids, special wild spawns, Shiny Pokemon releases, and other in-person bonuses. Expect more information to follow the conclusion of the Unova Tour.
