As the Season of Heritage prepares to come to a close, many players are looking forward to the winter’s biggest event. Next week brings the massive Pokemon GO Tour: Johto festivities to the game and players around the globe are going to be able to celebrate together with special in-game spawns, bonuses, and features.

As has become tradition for GO Tour events, ticket holders will have even more reason to log in during the celebration thanks to some additional special features. To help build hype for the event, there are going to be some in-person celebrations taking place across Europe to give Pokemon GO fans a chance to bundle up and get together to celebrate the end of the in-game season.

Obviously attending the event in person in Europe won’t be a realistic option for everyone, but there’s a long list of cities participating, so many players will have a chance to visit some of these parks and play in larger groups. The real-world celebrations are scheduled for Saturday, February 26, 2022, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time and players can find the full list of participating parks and locations right here…

Pokemon GO used to host a lot of in-person events like this, but mostly took a break from that over the past two years. Now that the company is feeling safe enough to dip back into the in-person event scene, it will be very interesting to see what sort of attendance they get and whether global offerings change for future events.

In the coming weeks, we should learn more about what other events will be arriving during the final days of the Season of Heritage. Be sure to check back in the near future for more Pokemon GO strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!

Pokemon GO is available on Android and iOS.
