Pokémon GO Hunting Grounds Unveiled for 2025

Pokemon GO Fest 2025: Osaka, Jersey City, and Paris to Host the Event

Pokemon GO's 2025 Fest locations have been unveiled: Osaka (May 29-June 1), Jersey City (June 6-8), and Paris (June 13-15). While details remain scarce, including pricing and specific in-game features, Niantic promises further information closer to the event dates. This announcement follows a year that has already seen new events and Pokemon encounters.

Past GO Fest Pricing and Potential 2025 Implications

Ticket prices for previous GO Fests have shown regional variations. While generally stable, 2023 and 2024 prices fluctuated slightly. Japan saw tickets priced around ¥3500-¥3600, while European prices decreased from roughly $40 in 2023 to $33 in 2024. US prices remained consistent 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 community reaction to this smaller price adjustment, Niantic may face pressure to maintain affordability for the larger, in-person GO Fest events, particularly considering the dedication of attendees who travel from afar. The pricing for the 2025 events remains a key point of interest for the community.
