Pokémon Space Trail
Monday 21st September, 2026
Pokémon is taking over London’s Science Museum with a free space-themed trail, placing large-scale Pokémon installations alongside real stories about European space science. The collaboration turns a familiar museum visit into a playful journey linking characters such as Pikachu and Lunatone with NASA and ESA’s lunar exploration.
Why it worked: It fused a mass-culture icon with ESA/NASA’s current moon push, offering a free, time-limited, bookable, scarcity-driven experience with visuals.
The lesson: Consider pairing a beloved pop IP with a live institutional agenda and add timed tickets plus limited merch to create urgency.
