This event will be split into two sessions; the Morning session and Afternoon session. Trainers who purchase a ticket can choose which part of the day they like to experience in each session.
Please note: Only Trainers with a valid ticket for the applicable session will be able to play within Nakajima Park. There will be a one-hour intermission between sessions to allow Trainers time to move between areas.
During the citywide event experience, ticket-holding Trainers will experience event-exclusive gameplay in Sapporo. Event gameplay will not be available to ticket-holding Trainers outside Sapporo.
For ticket holders only
