venderport

Discover an intergalactic farmer’s market, where CenterCore Expo guests can explore a rotating assortment of merchandise spanning the cosmos. VendorPort is the land’s centerpiece shop, centrally located with easy starship access from both the skies and the waterways.

Sleek, stainless steel airlock doors lead into an enclosed sci-fi drydock setting. Picture a bustling stellar shipyard which doubles as a marketplace. A hangar rooftop, partially open, peers out onto a galactic wormhole portal - a simple screen effect, really - where all manner of ships come and go. The shop space is set up to be incredibly malleable, with five unique docking ports each able to house a totally distinct vendor. Think of it as a simple way to seamlessly include various popular IPs without disrupting the overall land.

Individual vendors can switch out seasonally thanks to the store’s modular drydock design. Here is a sampling of a few IP-based storefronts guests might encounter:


WALL-E - The WALL-E Transport Vehicle which is home to the loveable robot’s curio collection


Avengers - Marvel-themed goods sold from the rear entry ramp of a Quinjet


Star Tours - Rex oversees a firesale on outdated Star Wars items sold out of a repurposed StarSpeeder 3000


Additional storefronts can cover additional IP topics such as TRON, Big Hero 6, and more. Of course, original ideas are welcome at VendorPort as well! It is a playground for new Imagineering retail settings.
