Harry Potter Wizards Unite: First event in Indianapolis, the Fan Festival

Harry Potter Wizards Unite: First event in Indianapolis, the Fan Festival

Harry Potter Wizards Unite is following in the footsteps of its elder sibling, Pokemon GO, and organizing its first IRL event.

The Wizards Unite Fan Festival will be held in the US city of Indianapolis from August 31 to September 1, 2019, to coincide with the American Labor Day holiday.

Little information was given as to the exact content of the event. However, it is very likely that Niantic keep things simple and reproduce the format of their successful Pokemon GO Fest — thousands of fans in a huge park, with reusable Foundables and exclusive features, with knock-on bonuses for the global player base.
