Pokémon GO Fest 2025 Invites All Trainers

Niantic is thrilled to invite Trainers from around the globe to the Pokémon GO Fest 2025, scheduled to kick off this summer! The in-person festivities will commence on May 29th at the following locations:

However, please note that regardless of the number of tickets you purchase, you're limited to one encounter with Volcanion. Any additional Special Research will reward you with Volcanion Candy instead.
