If you’re looking for Trainers in your area to trade, battle, or join raids with on Community Day, check out our Community Day map! Here you can find Community Ambassador events and local parks.

Community Ambassadors receive support from Niantic to run Pokémon GO events for their communities. If there are no Community Ambassadors near you, you can also search Campfire and find other meetups in your area.

The parks marked on the Community Day map are historically popular places for Trainers to gather during Community Day. These parks could be a fun option to play with your local community while enjoying some fresh air.* We hope this map helps Trainers connect!
