Reagan Building Hosting Big Pokémon Go Party This Week
The event comes just a couple weeks after thousands of people descended on the National Mall searching for pokémon.
If you missed hunting for pokémon with thousands of other trainers on the National Mall last month, there's going to be another event in D.C. -- this time, management at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center are inviting Pokémon Go players to come downtown and catch 'em all.
The Reagan Building will be hosting a Pokémon Go party on the Woodrow Wilson Plaza from 5-6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 10 -- and organizers are even inviting you to come dressed up.
"Wear your colors and meet up with other team members on the Plaza, a hot bed for Pokémon – including some rare species," the statement reads. "Players will have access to four exclusive Pokéstops with active lure modules on all stops. Everyone from the novice player to the master trainer is invited to come out for an evening of Pokémon fun."

The Reagan Building has been holding numerous events on the Woodrow Wilson Plaza in an effort to make the area a "gateway" between the National Mall and downtown to encourage tourists to go beyond the usual areas and shop around D.C. businesses.
The Plaza Bar will be open with specials available to Pokemon Go players during the event.
