Valencia, September 30, 2025 – Valencia has been chosen as one of only five cities worldwide to host the exclusive Pokémon GO Safari Zone, alongside Vancouver, Cancún, Amsterdam, and Bangkok.
For two days, thousands of international players walked through the city to capture unique Pokémon and enjoy exclusive experiences. Making Valencia the only Spanish city to take part in this global phenomenon.
An event that strengthens the local ecosystem
The event not only enhanced the city’s image as a cultural and tourist destination, but also highlighted the growing video game and digital entertainment ecosystem. Powered by Valencia Game City and the talent nurtured at ESAT (Escuela Superior de Arte y Tecnología), a leading institution in creativity, design, and video game development.
Valencia, a gaming benchmark
The combination of an active community, institutional support, and the city’s ability to host international gatherings shows that Valencia is already a benchmark for global gaming and esports events. While also generating a positive economic impact through tourism and international visibility.
With initiatives like this, Valencia has consolidated itself as a strategic location for the video game industry and technology investment. Proving that its value proposition goes far beyond being a stage: it is an expanding ecosystem ready to lead the future of digital entertainment.
