The Pokémon Fun Fest was a series of Pokémon events held at Six Flags Theme Parks across the United States and Canada in 2001.

The Pokémon Fun Fest consisted of a tent set up somewhere in the theme park. The Pikachu and Lugia cars were also occasionally present.

Inside the tent were a number of tables and chairs with Game Link Cables and Pokémon Trading Card Game mats, Nintendo 64 system setups running Pokémon Stadium 2, demo Game Boy systems, and a Celebi machine.

Pokémon Fun Fest ran Pokémon video game competitions as well as trivia competitions. An entertainer in a Pikachu costume would occasionally be present to take photos with.
