LEGO to partner with Pokémon GO Fest 2026: Copenhagen
There’ll be a significant LEGO presence at one of this year’s Pokémon GO Fest summer events, with three days of activities taking place in Copenhagen.
This summer will see the return of Pokémon GO Fest, a highly-anticipated annual event for those who are still playing Niantic’s now 10-year-old mobile game. The global festivities will be taking place in three different cities in the months to come, with Copenhagen offering multiple in-person activities and a significant presence from the LEGO Group.
Those who make their way to the Danish capital from June 12 to June 14 will be able to participate in a selection of Pokémon GO Fest and LEGO-related experiences, from challenges and digital goodies to giveaways and Timed Research.
“Pokémon GO has always been about getting out into the world and playing in your own way,” said Michael Steranka, Vice President of Product for Pokémon GO at Scopely, “whether that’s exploring somewhere new, meeting up with friends or just taking a different route home.
“As we head into our 10th year, teaming up with the LEGO Group feels like a really natural fit because they’ve always been about that same kind of creativity and freedom to play. Bringing that to GO Fest 2026: Copenhagen – especially in LEGO’s home country – feels special. We can’t wait to see families, friends and fans building and adventuring together in Denmark, the homeland of LEGO.”
For starters, Copenhagen’s famous Faelledparken will be hosting a special on-site event, with a LEGO Play Zone that will include hands-on activities and imaginative displays.
Adventuring beyond the park will allow gamers to visit LEGO Stores at both København and Tivoli Gardens, where there will be even more Pokémon GO Fest experiences to try out, as well as free exclusive giveaways up for grabs.
In the Pokémon GO game itself, players can look forward to special Timed Research available at Faelledparken and participating LEGO Stores throughout the event, allowing them to earn unique items and encounters with wild Pokémon.
Spinning PokéStops at those same LEGO Stores will also reward players with exclusive event-themed collectible digital stickers to share, plus there will be five different LEGO-themed in-game stamps to obtain, with a full set rewarded by in an encounter with a Pikachu that has a Special Background.
“For decades, LEGO play has brought people together across generations,” said Anne-Sophie Hadberg, Vice President & General Manager, Nordics at the LEGO Group, “and partnering with Pokémon GO at GO Fest 2026: Copenhagen is a fantastic way to spark new adventures.
“Whether you’re building a Pikachu out of LEGO bricks or catching one in the wild, this collaboration is all about celebrating imagination, community and the thrill of discovery. We’re beyond excited to see Copenhagen turn into a giant playground for LEGO builders and Pokémon Trainers alike.”
Tickets for Pokémon GO Fest 2026 are available to purchase right now, with this year’s global event due to commence in Tokyo from May 29 to June 1.
