Tickets are non-refundable, and the event will not go live until Community Day.

This special research event, along with this month's Community Day are designed to be able to play entirely from the safety of your home. Dubbed Community Day: Stay at Home Edition, Niantic has promised to make this event accessible for the many players around the world who are currently Shelter in Place or otherwise social distancing.
