Sydney gets Pokemon Go City Safari live event in December

And it'll cost ya.

Australia’s first Pokemon Go City Safari live event is set to take place in Sydney, New South Wales between 13-14 December, organisers have today revealed.

The event will take place between 10.00 am and 6.00 pm AEDT on both days, priced at $19 AUD for one day, or $33 AUD for both days. Additional $9 AUD add-ons provide Raid Passes, buffs to egg hatches, and more.

“Set off on a citywide adventure as you discover Sydney’s harbour, landmarks, and hidden gems, while meeting new friends and encountering Pokémon along the way,” organisers said of the event. “Whether you’re a Sydney local or a first-time visitor, your Pokémon GO City Safari will take you across the city in a whole new way. From historic landmarks to iconic harbour views, get ready for a taste of the city with Pokémon GO by your side!”

Regardless of whether you’re a local or a visitor, you’ll need to be in Sydney’s CBD and surrounding areas — and a valid event ticket holder — to take part.

“The City Safari stamp rally is activated upon entering the citywide gameplay area of a City Safari host city,” reads further information on the event. “To start the stamp rally, simply approach a PokéStop that’s part of the City Safari stamp rally to receive a stamp sheet. A stamp rally button will appear on the map, allowing you to start stamping!”
