Niantic has revealed details for Pokemon GO Tour 2027, the next annual in-person gathering for the mobile game. The event will take place February 19-21, 2027 across two locations: Los Angeles and Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

The tour theme centers on the Alola region, celebrating Pokemon introduced in Pokemon Sun & Moon and Pokemon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. In-person attendees will have access to exclusive Pokemon-catching opportunities and social pop-ups designed to bring trainers together from around the world.

Los Angeles will likely return to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, which has hosted recent Pokemon GO Tour events. The Kaohsiung location marks the first time the tour visits that Taiwan city, moving from last year's event in Tainan.

A global celebration will follow the same weekend, running February 27-28, 2027. While the global event will feature many Pokemon available at in-person locations, it won't offer exclusive in-person activities.

Ticket information for Pokemon GO Tour 2027 is expected to arrive in the coming weeks. Specific venues for the in-person events have not been officially confirmed beyond the expected Los Angeles location.
