2027 Pokémon International Championships in Chicago
The 2027 Pokémon North America International Championships will take place in Chicago.
Organizers announced the development in a social media post shared Sunday. “Next year, #PokemonNAIC is getting a new home!” reads the post.
The news comes just weeks after Pokémon Go Fest took over Grant Park, and Pokémon Fossil Museum debuted at the Field Museum.
The multi-day event will bring together some of the top Pokémon trainers from around the globe for the ultimate showdown across a variety of gameplay experiences.
Trainers will compete for winning placements in Pokémon trading card games, Video Games, Pokémon UNITE, and Pokémon GO.
Expect dates and additional information in the coming months.
