You'll also find The LEGO Store, Disney Home, the Star Wars Trading Post, Avengers Reserve with comics and collectibles, Disney Wonderful World of Sweets with freshly made sweets, Pandora, Sephora and lululemon, among others. You can buy and trade pins at Disney's Pin Traders, by the monorail station.

Entertainment
At Splitsville Luxury Lanes you can bowl on twenty lanes spread over two floors. Outside, in The Alley, you can play games and listen to local musicians. On the lawn by the Downtown Disney LIVE! Stage there's live music on many evenings, from Motown and rock to jazz and reggae.
Downtown Disney District is set to be revamped: new restaurants and shops are coming to the west end, inspired by Southern California's mid-century architecture.
