Niantic opened Pokémon GO Fest 2026: Tokyo on May 29, the first real-world Pokémon GO event in Tokyo and the largest ever, covering almost all of the city. The main venue spans four areas in Odaiba-Aomi, with stages, photo spots, and team zones. The event runs through June 1.
The main venue covers four zones across the Odaiba-Aomi area, connected by a roughly 2.5 km walking route. At Central Square, a giant Pikachu balloon and a festival tower host scheduled performances of Pikachu Ondo in GO Fest. Shiokaze Park features monuments for Team Valor, Team Mystic, and Team Instinct, with team-colored tents for rest and socializing. Odaiba Seaside Park includes Professor Willow's lab and Pokémon Eggs for photo opportunities. A second Pikachu balloon and stained glass with type icons are installed along the path to Symbol Promenade Park. Niantic's Live Event Manager Natsuki Miyake said the event was designed for both long-time and new trainers, with citywide gameplay and stamp rallies available even to those without tickets.
