A maximum of six spectator badges can be purchased at one time.
Children age 5 and under do not need to be registered in advance, and will instead be given wristbands on site at the event. These children do not receive any additional items.
Badge Pickup
Competitors and spectators can pick up their badges at the following locations and times:
Thursday, April 25, 5–8 p.m.
Friday, April 26, 8 a.m. – 7 p.m.
Saturday, April 27, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Sunday, April 28, 8:30 a.m. – 1 p.m.
Badge pickup will be located near the foyer outside Convention Hall II at the Berlin Estrel Congress Center.
Competitors will receive lanyard and welcome items when badges are picked up. In order to be entered in the tournament, players must check in early. See the check-in policy for more details.
Please note: Pokkén Tournament DX Senior and Masters Divisions, Video Game Junior and Senior Division, and Pokémon TCG Junior and Senior Division competitions all begin Saturday, April 27. Players may not participate in overlapping events that occur at the same time (e.g., Pokkén Tournament DX Senior Division and VG Senior Division competitions). If a player who advances from Friday in the Pokémon TCG or VG event has also registered for the Pokkén Tournament DX event, they will need to indicate which event they will play in on Saturday—they cannot play in both. If you qualify for two events, please inform a judge in the competition you will not be participating in so they can remove you from the competitor list.
