Niantic Inc. has chosen three cities spanning three continents for Pokemon Go Fest 2026: Tokyo, Chicago, and Copenhagen in Denmark. The event–which will celebrate the popular game’s 10th anniversary next year–will kick off in late May in Japan and end in the middle of June in Copenhagen.

Details are sparse outside the host cities for Pokemon Go Fest 2026 so far. However, there will be global events as well, for players who can’t attend at the main locations. For Pokemon Go Fest 2025, global events introduced Gigantamax starters to the game, for example.
