The Essence Emporium is a shop that becomes available twice a year for players to use their Blue Essence and redeem various rewards, which may include skins and chromas.
The Riot Games' Essence Emporium used to be a shop that opened twice a year and provided rewards to League of Legends players who had accumulated Blue Essence throughout the year. It was typically available in June or July, and again in December.
Players would often save up their excess Blue Essence and spend it all during the Essence Emporium event. Blue Essence is earned in various amounts from each match played in League of Legends, so over time, players can accumulate a significant amount of it.
Once players have purchased all the champions and rune pages they require, the Essence Emporium becomes the sole option for spending their Blue Essence. Despite this, the most recent Essence Emporium took place a while ago and has yet to return.
