Pokémon fans, mark your calendars! Target is celebrating 30 years of Pokémon with a special in-store Pokémon 30th Anniversary Celebration on September 27, 2026, from 12 PM to 4 PM at most Target stores.
This family-friendly event will include Pokémon-themed activities, photo opportunities, giveaways and more. If your kids love Pokémon or collecting Pokémon cards, this is one event you may want to check out.
What to Expect
During the Pokémon 30th Anniversary Celebration, guests can:
- Draw their own Pokémon TCG card with a special card-making activity.
- Take pictures at Pokémon-themed photo opportunities.
- Score Pokémon giveaways while supplies last.
- Try a Pokémon Pokopia Nintendo Switch 2 demo at select stores.
- Shop Pokémon merchandise, games and more.
Keep in mind that giveaways are available only while supplies last, so arriving earlier during the event window may be worthwhile if the freebies are your main reason for going.
