Pokemon GO Fest 2025: Osaka, Jersey City, and Paris Confirmed
Pokemon GO's 2025 GO Fest will take place in three exciting locations: Osaka, Japan; Jersey City, New Jersey; and Paris, France. Dates are set for May 29th-June 1st (Osaka), June 6th-8th (Jersey City), and June 13th-15th (Paris). While specific details regarding event features and ticket pricing remain undisclosed, Niantic promises further information closer to the event dates.
Past GO Fest ticket prices have shown regional variations, with minor fluctuations year-over-year. This regional pricing model may continue in 2025.
2024's GO Fest and Potential Price Implications
The pricing of 2024's Pokemon GO Fest offers some insight into potential 2025 costs. Ticket prices in 2023 and 2024 varied considerably depending on location. Japan saw consistent pricing around ¥3500-¥3600, while European prices decreased from approximately $40 USD in 2023 to $33 USD in 2024. US prices remained steady at $30 USD, and global tickets were consistently priced at $14.99.
Recent controversy surrounding a price increase for Pokemon GO Community Day tickets (from $1 to $2 USD) has caused player discontent. This price hike raises concerns about potential increases for GO Fest tickets. Given the negative community reaction to this smaller price adjustment, Niantic is likely to carefully consider any GO Fest pricing changes, particularly given the dedication of players who travel internationally for these events.
