Pokemon in the Park – Presented by Brightspeed
July 12 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Elizabethton Parks and Recreation, in partnership with the Elizabethton/Carter County Public Library and Carter County Drug Prevention, invites all Pokémon Trainers to Pokémon in the Park, presented by Brightspeed, on Sunday, July 12, 2026, from 2:00 to 5:00 PM at Covered Bridge Park.
In celebration of Niantic’s global Pokémon Go Fest, this local event offers a fun and friendly gathering space for Pokémon Go players of all ages. Trainers can trade, battle, and connect with fellow players throughout the park – and yes, lures will be set all day to boost your chances of catching something legendary!
Put your Poke-knowledge to the test with trivia contests hosted by Trivia with Budds and score prizes throughout the afternoon. Free inflatables will be available to bounce on, and Magic Mirror Skin Art will be there with Pokemon face painting designs galore! Trainers can also team up for Raid Battles – so whether you’re Team Instinct, Mystic, or Valor, this is your chance to unite at Covered Bridge Park for an afternoon of fun.
Food trucks will be on-site, offering a variety of food, drinks, and snacks available for purchase.
Bring your phone (or tablet), your team pride, and your best Pokeballs – this is one community event you won’t want to miss!
