CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza replace the original festival center planned for World Celebration. They will serve as a multi-functional space that will be used during the park’s various festivals and be home to a Mickey & Friends meet and greet, a demo kitchen, a mixology bar, a gallery space, and more.

The white columns are cylindrical and support some of the steel making up the hall’s roof.

The building is still completely open, with all the steel supports exposed, but there are some concrete support walls.
