Pokemon GO Fest 2025: Osaka, Jersey City, and Paris to Host the Event
Pokemon GO's 2025 GO Fest locations have been announced: Osaka (May 29 - June 1), Jersey City (June 6-8), and Paris (June 13-15). While details on event features and pricing remain scarce, Niantic promises further updates as the dates approach. This annual event consistently draws large crowds, offering unique Pokemon encounters and region-exclusive spawns.
Past GO Fest Pricing and Potential 2025 Implications
Historical ticket prices varied geographically and slightly year-over-year. For instance, the Japanese event hovered around ¥3500-¥3600 in 2023 and 2024, while European prices decreased from roughly $40 in 2023 to $33 in 2024. US prices remained steady at $30, and global tickets cost $14.99 both years.
Recent controversy surrounding a price hike for Community Day tickets (from $1 to $2 USD) has sparked player concern about potential GO Fest price increases. Given the negative player reaction to this smaller price adjustment, Niantic might adopt a cautious approach to pricing for the more significant GO Fest event, particularly considering the dedication of attendees who travel internationally for the experience. The 2024 GO Fest events may offer clues regarding pricing strategies for 2025.
