The Pokémon GO Fest is an annual virtual and real-world event that celebrates Pokémon GO. Taking place throughout Japan, Spain and the United States, the Pokémon GO fest aims to provide fans of the game with activations, special in-game offers and other benefits.
This year’s edition of the Pokémon GO Fest in the United States will take place between July 5th-7th, and will feature a range of activations by Google Play to promote the game.
Google Play will work with 100 Thieves to offer visitors that are a part of the Google Play Points Gold+ members with access to meet and greets with 100 Thieves talent such as Rachell Marie ‘Valkyrae’ Hofstetter, Leslie Ann ‘Fuslie’ Fu and other known streamers. The Gold+ members will also get a chance to buy limited-edition merchandise co-created by 100 Thieves and Pokémon.
The partnership is a part of a broader collaboration between 100 Thieves and Google Play which will also include more activations during streams in July.
