Go Fest Madrid brings Pokemon Go Players Together Tons of Shinies and Special Pokemon appeared in person Lots of places to take cool photos After experiencing - a stone’s throw away from my doorstep, I was pretty excited for my next Go Fest event. Pokemon Go Fest is happening again this year, with locations all around the world. The closest to me was Madrid, so I was very excited when I finally booked tickets and went off to play.
Go Fest is the more traditional version of Pokemon Go’s in-person event, unlike their newer City Safari, which we attended in Barcelona last year. Go Fest is pretty straightforward. The base ticket allows you to go to a huge greenspace that has been divided - digitally - into several zones.
These zones, during the 5-and-a-half-hour ticket time, are filled with themed Pokemon in that specific zone. There is a higher Shiny rate, normally some exclusive Pokemon, and also just tons to do within the park. Go Fest Madrid was absolutely massive - much larger than the park that we went to in London with Niantic only using a small portion of it.
There were tons of beautiful parts to explore, with some areas decorated and others left as is. When it comes to in-game content, that’s one of the main focuses in Pokemon Go. There are tons of gyms that appear in the park when your time slot goes live.
These are full of ultra beasts, including Necrozma. Only people doing raids in person with a ticket (as opposed to remoting into the ones outside the park) coul.
