Niantic explains why NA Pokémon Go fans have been event-locked to 2 states for the past 3 years
It can be tough being a Pokémon Go fan in North America if you don’t live in the LA or nearby New York City. Niantic has hosted live in-person events like Go Fest for three years in a row around these two cities—much to the disdain of fans located elsewhere on the continent.
Outside of NA, Europe has seen a Go Fest run in four different countries in four years, while fans in Japan have been able to go to various prominent locations from Osaka to Sapporo. Despite so much variety elsewhere to give more trainers a chance to have a home event, Niantic has only focused on two locations the past three years now in NA.
