Get ready for Pokémon GO Fest 2025! Niantic is breaking with tradition and announcing event dates early. This year's festivities are spread across three exciting locations in June.
Pokémon GO Fest 2025 Dates & Locations
Niantic has confirmed three in-person GO Fest events for 2025:
- 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 on sale, plan your travel and PTO now! Past events required selecting a specific day within the weekend window, so flexibility is key. A global GO Fest event is anticipated later in June or early July, but details are still under wraps.
All Pokémon GO Fest 2025 Locations
This year's locations include returning favorites and a fresh addition:
- Osaka, Japan

Japan and the US return as host countries, while France takes the stage, replacing Spain from last year's events. A global event is expected, mirroring previous years' virtual experiences.
What to Expect at Pokémon GO Fest 2025
While specific details are scarce, past GO Fests have delivered exciting Pokémon debuts, increased Raid activity, special wild spawns, Shiny Pokémon releases, and other bonuses. Expect more information to drop soon after the conclusion of the GO Tour: Unova in February 2025.
For example, last year's GO Fest introduced Necrozma and its Fusion mechanic.
