Niantic is once again bringing romance to the world of Pokémon GO by reviving its official engagement event during Pokémon GO Fest—this time in the heart of Paris. Following its successful debut in 2024, the special proposal opportunity is returning to give romantic trainers the chance to pop the big question in the iconic City of Light.
A Love-Fueled Tradition Returns
Over the years, couples have used Pokémon GO Fest as a backdrop for unforgettable marriage proposals. In 2024, Niantic formally embraced the trend by offering a structured engagement experience during the Madrid GO Fest, where five couples proposed—and all five received a resounding “yes.”
Now, as Pokémon GO Fest heads to Paris from June 13–15, the proposal opportunity is returning, with Niantic offering a limited number of couples the chance to propose in style.
What’s Included in the Paris Engagement Package?
Selected couples will receive:
- Access to an exclusive proposal venue within the event.
- A professional photographer to capture the magical moment.
- A special surprise gift provided by Niantic.
(Last year, this included a meet-and-greet with Pikachu and Eevee.)
While the exact surprise this year remains a mystery, fans can likely expect a similar level of charm and Pokémon-themed magic.
How to Apply for the Pokémon GO Engagement Experience
Interested couples will need to:
- Purchase tickets for Pokémon GO Fest Paris (each ticket costs €27, or approximately $30 USD).
- Attend the event in person with both partners present.
- Email Niantic detailing their relationship story and proposal plans.
- Bring the engagement ring to the event—Niantic will take care of the rest.
Only a handful of participants will be chosen, making this a rare and memorable opportunity for Pokémon-loving couples.
Pokémon GO: Bringing Hearts Together
From couples who go on daily walks and raids together to those who met through local events, Pokémon GO has long served as a shared hobby for romantic partners. Proposals using Poké Balls, custom Pokémon TCG cards, or themed cosplay have become a beloved staple of the community.
With the return of the official engagement event, Paris GO Fest is shaping up to be a truly unforgettable experience—both for trainers seeking Shinies and those seeking soulmates.
