The installation covered the 17-storey geodesic structure with 131 colourful panels, creating a 360-degree recreation of the Adidas Trionda, the official ball for the tournament.
The report says those materials are now being converted into:
Each item uses a different section of the red, green and blue design. Buyers therefore cannot select a specific colour combination, making every piece distinct.
The collection turns a temporary World Cup attraction into a fundraising mechanism. Reportedly, the net income will be directed to Science World’s programmes, linking football-related demand with the institution’s ongoing work.
The donation plan widens that legacy. Panels are expected to be shared with Science World, B.C. Place, the B.C. Soccer Association, Canada Soccer, the provincial government, the Museum of Vancouver and Destination Vancouver.
That approach also reflects the scale of the original project. The dome drew visitors, football supporters and international attention, while the conversion process keeps its visual identity in circulation beyond the installation itself.
At prices ranging from $49.95 for reusable bags to $999.95 for complete panels, the collection is aimed at collectors as much as ordinary shoppers. The limited quantities make scarcity part of the appeal, while the varied panel patterns ensure no two products are exactly alike.
The next storyline will be whether the merchandise extends the project’s reach as anticipation for the 2026 World Cup builds. If demand holds, the dome’s afterlife could become a notable part of the tournament’s wider cultural footprint.
