November 14-15 from 10:00AM-6:30PM
Level 8 or level 50, day-one player or someone who reinstalled last week, coming with a full group or showing up alone and not knowing a soul — you're welcome here. We don't check your team, your badge count, or how much you spend. Bring your kids, bring your parents, bring the friend who only plays when you drag them out. We ask exactly two things in return: **don't cheat, and treat everyone with respect.** That's it. Play the game the way it's meant to be played, and be the kind of person other trainers are glad to run into. Do those two things and you'll fit right in.
Drawing at 5:30 PM each day. You must be present to win.
Fifteen prizes, and you decide which ones you're going after. That's what makes this raffle different — you're not hoping the one thing you actually want happens to come up. Every ticket you earn goes toward a specific prize, so you put your tickets where your heart is. Want your odds spread out? Split them up. Have your eye on exactly one thing? Stack them all and go for it.Best of all, each comes with the official GO WILD 2026 enamel pin!
Tickets are easy to come by:
-
Check in — 1 ticket. Everyone gets one, just for cheking in
-
Kids too young to check in — 2 tickets. No one misses out on a technicality
-
Get your face painted — 2 tickets.
-
Grab a Survival Kit — 2 tickets. First 100 trainers each day
-
Wear your Pokémon gear — possible bonus tickets
-
Join a raid train — possible bonus tickets
We're not going to spell out the exact formula on those last two. Just know that the trainers who show up in the spirit of the thing tend to end up holding more tickets than the ones who don't.
One rule on the drawing: you have to be there. We call a name, and if that trainer isn't standing in front of us, we draw again and move on to the next ticket. No holding prizes, no catching up with you later — it isn't fair to everyone who stuck around. So earn your tickets, put them on the prize you actually want, and make sure you're there at 5:30.
Get ready for an epic challenge! The Shiny Hunters of Noblesville will be hiding five physical Poké Balls throughout the park for a daily hunt. If you manage to spot one of these hidden treasures, bring it straight back to the
Check-In Station to claim reward. This hunt is 100% free for everyone, adding an extra layer of thrill as you explore the trails!
The stakes are going to be high, and the type of ball you find determines your haul. The coveted Ultra Ball will hold the top $50 prize, the Great Ball will secure the $25 prize, and three standard Poké Balls will be out there for $10 prizes all in PokéCoins. Plus, no matter which one you track down, every single winner will also receive the official GO Fest Global enamel pin! Keep your eyes peeled—anyone can win, so get ready to head out and see if you can claim that top prize!
You usually smell them before you see them. Blue Smoke BBQ has become a staple at our events — a local, family-run operation turning out slow-smoked barbecue that's worth the walk across the lot, whether you're raid or just following your nose. There's no shortcut to what they do: real smoke,
real time, and the kind of plate that makes trainers stop scrolling and actually sit down for a minute. Supporting them means supporting a hometown business that keeps showing up for this community.
Fenny's showed up once and immediately became something trainers ask about. It's a simple idea done right — a hot dog you actually remember, handed over fast enough that you're back in the raid lobby before it starts. Word got around after the first event, and they're returning
for the second with us, which tells you everything about how it went. Local, easy to love, and exactly the kind of small business we want feeding this community. Do yourself a favor and get there early.
Joining us for the first time: Café Huesca, a mobile coffee cart built around handcrafted drinks — lattes, matcha, chai — run by Naomi Castillo-Huesca, who started it out of a love for making those drinks and sharing
them. They're the cart people book for weddings, showers and corporate events, and now they're rolling one up to a field full of trainers, which we think is a considerably better use of a good matcha. **Heads up: Café Huesca is with us Sunday only**, so if you're coming both days, plan your caffeine accordingly
To ensure that Pokémon GO trainers can stay in the game without worrying about low batteries, both shelters are equipped with integrated high-speed
charging stations. These hubs feature a versatile array of multiple USB-C and USB-A ports, accommodating everything from the latest flagship smartphones to legacy devices and external power banks. Strategically positioned within the trading areas, these stations allow players to comfortably sit and facilitate long-distance or special trades while their devices regain power. By providing a reliable energy source right at the heart of the action, the shelters transform into true community anchors where the only thing being "depleted" is your Stardust, not your phone battery.
To make your downtime even more productive, we’ve launched an amazing trade list generator that simplifies how you swap. You can easily build your personalized list and share it directly to our community hub for others to browse. This makes it incredibly easy for players at both shelters to see what you have available and coordinate trades in real-time. It’s the best way to find exactly what you're looking for while your phone gets back up to 100%.
your cheek or a sleek ditto on your wrist, we’ve got a look for every Trainer. Plus, the excitement doesn't stop with the art—every person who gets painted will snag two bonus tickets for our grand raffle, increasing your chances to take home some incredible loot! It’s the ultimate way to show off your favorite Pokémon while gearing up for some big wins, so don't miss out on becoming a walking work of art!
Get ready to wear your Pokémon pride in the most vibrant way possible! We’re bringing in talented artists to transform you with eight exclusive Pokémon designs, available as face masterpieces or as detailed art on your arms and hands. Whether you want to rock a classic Pikachu on
Long day, big crowds, a lot of walking: you're going to want a Survival Kit. The first 100 trainers each day of GO Wild get one, free, and there's real stuff inside — an exclusive event patch you can't get any other way, a Scopely code card good for 4 in-game items, 2 extra raffle tickets, and more swag we're not spoiling here. Those raffle tickets are the part to pay attention to: showing up early doesn't just get you a bag, it improves your odds on the prizes. That's per day, so if you missed out on day one you get another shot on day two. But first 100 means first 100 — once they're gone, they're gone. Show up early.
We are excited to announce that we will be providing Mewtwo, Eevee, and Pikachu headbands for everyone to enjoy! These are a great way to add some flair to the day and show off your love for these iconic characters. We’ll have plenty on hand, so you can pick the one that fits you best and wear it throughout the festivities.
The real question is: which "type" are you? Whether you’re feeling Psychic, Normal, or Electric, you’ll have the chance to grab the headband that matches your energy. Keep an eye out for the distribution station so you can claim your favorite and join in on the fun!
Even better, we will be giving away tickets to people wearing pokemon costumes and swag at random times... including these headbands!
