Pokémon Night Out concerts coming to Los Angeles and London
The Pokémon Company International will celebrate Pokemon’s 30th anniversary with a pair of concerts.
Revealed yesterday, Pokémon Night Out will feature headliner Marshmello and supporting act Alison Wonderland uniting the worlds of EDM and Pokémon for a wild experience. The concerts will take place at Intuit Dome in Los Angeles on October 24 and The O2 Arena in London on November 10. Tickets for both 16+ shows will go on sale this Friday (April 17) (10 a.m. for the Los Angeles show and 10 a.m. BST). Doors for both shows will open at 6 p.m.
Taito Okiura, vice president of marketing and media at The Pokémon Company International said this about the concerts:
“The ‘What’s Your Favourite?’ campaign was designed to bring people together through a shared love of Pokémon — with immersive experiences like ‘Pokémon Night Out,’ we’re leveraging the power of music to unite Trainers across our global fan community. Both Marshmello and Alison Wonderland share a genuine passion for Pokémon that extends beyond the stage, making this collaboration a natural celebration of the fandom. Trainers can expect an unforgettable audiovisual journey featuring fan-favourite Pokémon while honoring nearly 30 years of adventures together.”
A family-friendly Pokémon celebration will come to select cities this year. Pokémon Day Out will hit up Bordeaux (France), New York City, Dresden (Germany), and Mexico City this summer. More information on Pokémon Day Out will be released soon.
