What is “Pikmin Bloom Journey”?
Pikmin Bloom Journey is a paid event where you can meet special Decor Pikmin and obtain Mii costumes and postcards with event-exclusive designs by walking around with Pikmin and completing missions.
There are two events in “Pikmin Bloom Journey“: “Pikmin Bloom Journey 2025: Sendai“, a real event held in Sendai Miyazaki, and “Pikmin Bloom Journey 2025: Challenge Anywhere”, an online event that can be joined from anywhere in the world.
Please note that the dates and ticket prices differ for each event, as do the event content and rewards. For details of the two events, please check here.

About the onsite present
Can I choose the color of the paper sun visor?
Ticket holders can choose one of seven types of sun visors (red, blue, yellow, white, rock, purple, wing) as a gift. However, the amount of each color of paper sun visor to be distributed is limited. Please note that you may not be able to choose the color you want depending on the timing of your receipt.
Note: We have a sufficient stock of the Pikmin paper sun visors to give away each day, but please understand that you may not be able to choose the type you want depending on the situation.
My paper sun visor, map, or other gifts are damaged. Can you replace it?
Unfortunately, the amount for participant gifts to be distributed at Nishi Park is limited, so we won’t be able to replace the sun visor, map, or other items if they are damaged. Each participant is limited to one of each gift.
About the Special Mission
The event’s dedicated missions are not displayed.
The event’s missions are only displayed to players who meet the following three conditions:
- You must be a ticket holder.
- It must be the day you have a ticket, and during the event time (8:00-18:00).
- You must be near a Special Spot for the event.
If you meet the above conditions, you will receive “Gold Seedling (Yellow)” and a “Single-Use Slots”, and the first task “Grow the event's Gold Seedling (Yellow)” will begin. If you complete this task, the next three special tasks will be displayed, and a special spot will appear on the map.
Note：
- To start the event experience, you will need to launch the Pikmin Bloom app once near any Special Spot in the venue during the event time on the day you hold a valid ticket for.
- There is no required sequence to visit the Special Spots. You can visit them in any order you like.
- If you have a ticket for the event but the dedicated missions are not being displayed, please contact support within the app or the information center at the gift reception venue. The information center will be open from 8:00 to 18:00 on the day of the event.
Can I continue to play the event even after the event time is over?
No, you cannot. The event ends at 18:00 on the day of your ticket. The event will be only displayed during the event time only.
I want to know the content of the three special missions.
The following are the three missions. You can work on all three at the same time.
1: Swipe down on 10 Special Spots
Reward per special spot: A Golden Seedling that becomes a Decor Pikmin related to that location, Red Cosmos nectar, and a postcard with a special design.
Two of the Special Spots in Sendai Journey [Jozenji-dori Zelkova Avenue, Bust of Date Masamune (Sendai Ryokusaikan Visitor Center)] will award a Gold Seedling that grows into a Photo Button Decor Pikmin.
Mission Reward: the Event Badge, and the Rosette Decor Pikmin gift.
2: Walk 7000 steps!
Reward: Gold Seedling (Present Sticker (Gold) Decor Pikmin - White)
3: Plant 3000 Blue Roses!
Reward: Gold Seedling (Present Sticker (Gold) Decor Pikmin - Winged)
I don't have enough Red Cosmos petals to complete the mission.
By swiping the special spots, you can receive Red Cosmos nectar. Give it to your Pikmin to collect the petals. If you visit all the Special Spots, you'll obtain enough Red Cosmos nectar to complete the mission. Also, when you pluck the Yellow Pikmin at the start of the event, you will receive 100 Red Cosmos petals.
If there are still not enough petals to complete the mission, you can exchange red cosmos petals for coins at the in-game shop. On the day of the event, red cosmos petals will only be available at the shop for ticket holders.
Can I get rewards from the same Special Spot more than once?
No. You can only get rewards once from each.
Is there a specific order in which to visit the Special Spots?
There is no specific order in which to visit the Special Spots. You can visit them in any order you like.
I want to know how to get rewards from Special Spots and how to have them count towards completing mission 1 stated above.
Find the Special Spots on the map. The Special Spots that you have not yet obtained rewards from will be glowing.
2. Tap to display the details screen.
3. On the details screen, swipe down on the Special Spot to receive your reward.
