For Community Center Bundles, see Bundles.

The Community Center is located on the screen north of Pierre's General Store.

To activate the Community Center Bundles, you must trigger a cut scene with Lewis. Enter Pelican Town from the bus stop screen on a sunny day from Spring 5th onward on or between 8:00 am and 1:00 pm. If you enter town from another direction, at another time, or on a day that is not sunny, the cut scene will not trigger.

In the cut scene, Lewis leads you to the Community Center, where you will find some strange creatures called Junimos that fade in and out of existence, along with a glowing placard covered in strange writing. Once you attempt to read the placard (you won't understand it), you will receive a letter from the Wizard on the day after and be able to enter his house. Going there triggers a followup cut scene in which the Wizard talks to you about the Junimos. Consuming the Wizard's potion activates the bundles. You can then return to the Community Center to read the placards, understand them, and give the bundle offerings to the Junimos.

Alternatively, the Community Center can become the Joja Warehouse if the player chooses to purchase a membership from Morris at JojaMart. If the player does this that building will replace the community center and all unlocks are simply purchased with gold instead of bundles.

Finishing the Center

Completing all bundles renovates the entire Community Center and unlocks the "Local Legend" Achievement. The game also unlocks a cut scene that shows the grand re-opening of the Community Center and is triggered by entering Pelican Town Square at any time on another day. However, the scene is delayed to another day if it is raining or a festival is to be held in town.

Details 

The grand opening event begins by showing the entire town at the Community Center. Everyone has balloons and is celebrating and taking a look at the refurbished Center. Inside, the mayor shows off the Center to everyone exploring it. Entering the Center, you can talk to Lewis, who will exclaim how happy he and the rest of the town is. On behalf of the whole town, he awards you with the Stardew Hero Trophy in thanks.

Soon after, a voice grumbles, and the owner of JojaMart, Morris, comes into the Center. He asks where all his customers went as he looks around the building. Angrily, Pierre walks over and asks Morris how it feels. You will have two choices to choose from in order to calm the situation or escalate it.

  • "Let's be reasonable."
  • "Let's settle this the old-fashioned way."

If you pick "Let's be reasonable."
Morris then boasts that he will put on a huge sale to get his customers back and laughs off the event. Pierre then tells him he's wrong and asks everyone to gather around. He begins to talk about when he first moved to the Pelican Town, reminiscing about how the town had a real sense of being a family and a community, talking to different people about how they enjoyed and connected with each other in the Center and that Joja Mart took that away from them. Now that the Center is finished, Pierre asks everyone to boycott JojaMart in order to take advantage of their second chance that the player has given them. Morris jumps in shock and everyone takes a second to soak it in.

Everyone will agree with Pierre to boycott Joja. Morris then exclaims that his business is ruined and will rush out of the Center. The screen will go dark and JojaMart will go out of business and leave town.

If you pick "Let's settle this the old-fashioned way."
Morris will boast about a huge sale he will put on to get his customers back and laugh in Pierre's face. Pierre will then say that he will not get his way this time and proposes that they settle this once and for all. Morris asks how they would do so and Pierre will then start to threaten to fight Morris. Morris will scoff at Pierre and begin to walk off. Pierre will then try to goad on Morris with a threat of all Joja Mart employees being cowards. Morris will become infuriated at the slander of his employer, Joja. He will walk back to Pierre and begin fighting with him. Caroline will scream Pierre's name as George laughs and enjoys the show as Lewis and Robin jump in surprise from the fight. Morris and Pierre will start to insult each other as they continue to fight. Pierre will then punch Morris so hard that he flies out of the community center's ceiling! Pierre is so proud of his winning punch he smiles and poses with sunglasses.

'Regardless of which option you take, JojaMart will become abandoned and decrepit. Pierre's General Store will no longer be closed on Wednesdays and will be open every day of the week. '

Trivia

  • When you complete one Community Center bundle, the Junimos renovate the associated room or area.
  • When complete the last bundle, the Junimos also complete the entire Community Center renovation, then leave. In addition:
  • The cutscene where you get the Stardew Hero Trophy may play 2 days after completing the bundles if the bulletin bundle was completed last.
  • The Junimo message in the community center translates to "We the junimo are happy to aid you. In return we ask for gifts of the valley. If you are one with forest magic then you will see the true nature of this scroll."
  • Each room has a Junimo that stands in front of the plaque, disappearing when the player gets near. When a bundle is completed, the associated Junimo will be seen carrying the bundle into the hut. When a room is completed, the Junimo will retrieve a star from the hut and place it above the mantle, and will then follow the player around until they leave the Community Center.
  • A Junimo carrying a bundle into the hut might say "A gift!" or "Thank you!" in Junimo. When fetching a star, they might say "Junimo!" or "Star!".
  • If the player completes two different bundles on the same day, the cutscene for the second bundle that was completed will be skipped and only the cutscene from the first bundle will be played.
  • If the player completes a particular bundle the day before he/she gets married, then the cutscene in which the Junimos unlock whatever was promised from said bundle will be skipped.
  • After being fully restored, some villagers may visit the Community Center on Fridays to hang around for the rest of their day.
  • After being restored the clock will work again and keep pace with the in-game clock.
  • Strangely enough; when the player passes out after 2 AM even after JojaMart is run out of town, a Joja Mart Representative can still find you incapacitated.
  • There is a room in the community center in the upper-left corner with no bundles. Once the community center is finished, it is revealed as a kitchen and a dining area. Ironically, Gus doesn't go there that much.
  • It is possible for the cutscene to occur on the 28th of Summer (The Dance of the Moonlight Jellies).
