Safari Zone Taipei 2019 Begins October 3rd, Tonight in the US

After repeated issues with server overload in the The New Taipei Metropolitan Park, Niantic has announced that spawns for the event will be extended to the city as a whole in an attempt to lessen server load.

Even more Pokémon are now appearing throughout the city. If you’re in Pokémon GO Safari Zone in New Taipei, we encourage you to explore the city to rather than visiting the park due to mobile carriers’ capacity. Thank you!

Trainers,

Ready to catch the bug for our newest Safari Zone event? We’re buzzing with excitement over Pokémon GO Safari Zone New Taipei City. In conjunction with the New Taipei City government, we’ll be live in New Taipei Metropolitan Park from October 3 to 6.

Despite being one of the world’s most densely populated metropolises, New Taipei City has always strived to maintain the city’s biodiversity and natural scenery by transforming forgotten areas into beautiful new parks. The New Taipei Metropolitan Park is the largest city park in the Greater Taipei area and is famous for its waterside walkway and wildlife. Trainers will be able to find Scyther, Combee, and many Water-, Bug- and Grass-type Pokémon from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the park, as well as more than 60 tourist attractions across New Taipei City. From the historical old streets to scenic mountain areas, it’s your chance to make the most of this exciting city while catching Pokémon to your heart’s content!

No tickets are necessary for this event, and Trainers from near and far are all welcome to join in the fun.

The event is hosted in conjunction with the city government of New Taipei City.

We are excited to see you soon!
