Vans Is Coming to Disney Springs Town Center at Walt Disney World

Disney Springs is getting a brand new tenant — and it’s one that skate culture fans and sneaker enthusiasts will be very excited about. Vans is coming to Disney Springs Town Center, and it’s taking over one of the most prime retail spots in the entire shopping district.

Here’s what we know so far about the Vans Disney Springs opening, where it’s landing, and what to expect when it finally opens its doors.

Quick Summary

• Vans is officially coming to Disney Springs Town Center at Walt Disney World
• The store will take over the former Volcom space in the Town Center area
• Volcom shut down all US locations in April 2025, leaving the space vacant
• The space has been running as a limited-time pop-up art gallery during the holiday season
• No official opening date has been announced yet

Vans Is Coming to Disney Springs Town Center

Where Exactly Is It Going?

The Vans store will be moving into the space that Volcom vacated back in April 2025, when the surf and skate brand shut down every one of its US retail locations. If you’ve visited Disney Springs recently, you may have noticed that space doing double duty as a limited-time pop-up art gallery during the holiday season. That chapter is closing, and Vans is moving in.

The Town Center area of Disney Springs is prime real estate. It’s the outdoor shopping zone that features a mix of high-end boutiques and well-known brands, all set along waterside walkways and open-air plazas. It’s one of the best places to shop at Walt Disney World — and Vans fits right in with the energy of the area.

Why Vans Makes a Lot of Sense at Disney Springs

Vans isn’t just a shoe brand — it’s a lifestyle brand with serious cultural weight. As one of the most recognized names in casual and skate-influenced fashion in the US, Vans sells apparel, footwear, and accessories that appeal to a wide range of shoppers. Families visiting Disney World, teens, and adults who grew up skating or listening to punk music all have a reason to walk through that door.

That cross-generational appeal is exactly what Disney Springs looks for in tenants. Vans isn’t niche — it’s mainstream enough to pull in casual shoppers but specific enough to have a genuine following. This is a smart addition to the lineup.

What We Don’t Know Yet

No Opening Date Announced

As of right now, Disney has not announced an official opening date for the Vans store at Disney Springs. That means if you’re planning a trip to Walt Disney World and hoping to shop at Vans, you’ll want to check for updates closer to your visit. Keep an eye on the Disney Springs website and Disney’s social channels — they typically post grand opening announcements a few weeks in advance.

What the Store Will Look Like

No details have been shared yet about the store’s size, layout, or what products it will carry beyond the standard Vans lineup of shoes, clothing, and accessories. Vans stores can vary significantly in what they stock, from limited-edition collaborations to basic wardrobe staples. Given the Disney Springs location, there’s always a possibility of Disney-themed Vans merchandise — though nothing has been confirmed.

Disney Springs Shopping Just Got Better

The addition of Vans continues Disney Springs’ momentum as a legitimate shopping destination that doesn’t require a park ticket to visit. Free parking, waterfront views, and an increasingly strong retail mix make it worth the trip even on a non-park day.

Losing Volcom was unfortunate, but Vans is a stronger brand with broader appeal. This is an upgrade for the Town Center area, and it gives the space a clear identity that the pop-up gallery format couldn’t quite provide.

Conclusion

Vans coming to Disney Springs Town Center is one of the more exciting retail announcements to come out of Walt Disney World in recent months. It’s the right brand for the space, the right space for the brand, and a sign that Disney Springs continues to evolve its tenant mix in smart ways.

No opening date yet — but this one is worth watching. Add Disney Springs to your next Walt Disney World visit, and check in for updates on when Vans officially opens its doors.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had.  Will most definitely be using him again.   He took care of everything and kept me on track.  Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything.   Can't thank him enough.   He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
