Calling all Pokémon Trainers! Japan is opening a new Pokémon theme park next year!
The Pokémon Company just announced that PokéPark KANTO, the first-ever permanent outdoor Pokémon attraction, will open on Feb. 5, 2026.
The new park stretches over 26,000 square meters in a corner of Yomiuriland, an amusement park located in Tokyo’s verdant Tama Hills. PokéPark KANTO is a place where Trainers can embark on an adventure through two main zones filled with over 600 Pokémon!
According to the official website, the Pokémon Forest is a sprawling wilderness featuring various terrains such as hilly paths, tall grass, tunnels, rocky trails, and more. Here, trainers can observe a wide variety of Pokémon from Kantoand other regions as they run, battle, and share berries.
In Sedge Town, you’ll find the Pokémon Trainers' Market, the Pokémon Center, Poké Mart, Gym, Pokémon parade, and two other attractions: the Pika Pika Paradise — a ride powered by over 30 Electric-type Pokémon — and the Vee Vee Voyage carousel. This zone is the place to connect with Pokémon Trainers, watch shows, and take part in exciting meet-and-greet events.
Tickets are sold via the official PokéPark KANTO website on a first-come, first-served basis. Note that tickets go live two months in advance and will close as soon as they sell out. Visitors from outside Japan are advised to buy tickets here.
You can purchase the Ace Trainer's Pass (JP¥14,000 to JP¥16,500), which grants access to both zones with unlimited re-entry alongside other perks like meet-and-greets, reserved seating for shows, access to priority lanes for attractions, and original merchandise. Alternatively, there’s the Trainer’s Pass (JP¥7,900 to JP¥9,400), which grants a single entry to the Pokémon Forest within a specified time slot and unlimited entry to Sedge Town. The park will also introduce a Town’s Pass in summer 2026, for guests who wish to only visit Sedge Town. Prices will range from JP¥4,700 to JP¥5,500.
Rides and attractions are not included in the entry ticket price and will have to be bought separately. Prices are at JP¥1,200 (Adults) and JP¥800 (Children).
