Pokémon Go Tour: Unova in Los Angeles Confirmed, Refunds Offered
The Pokémon Go Tour: Unova event, initially uncertain due to the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, is officially a go. Niantic has confirmed the event will proceed as planned at the Rose Bowl Stadium, Brookside Golf Course, and throughout the greater Los Angeles and Orange County areas.
While the wildfires caused significant disruption, the situation has improved, allowing the event to move forward. However, recognizing the challenges faced by many, Niantic is providing refunds for ticket holders affected by the wildfires. These refunds can be requested through in-app support until February 23rd.
Beyond the event itself, Niantic has pledged to support the local community impacted by the fires. They've encouraged attendees to follow all necessary health and safety guidelines.
More Than Just a Game
The wildfires highlighted the vulnerability of even seemingly impervious areas like Los Angeles. Niantic's decision to proceed with the event signals a commitment to helping restore a sense of normalcy for attendees. Their promise of additional community support is a welcome gesture, mirroring the broader outpouring of aid from the entertainment industry.
Niantic urges players to remain aware of their surroundings and anticipates further updates. For more details on the Pokémon Go Tour: Unova and its Tour Pass, check out our previous coverage. And for an extra advantage, consult our list of Pokémon Go promo codes.
