It’s an event of truly heroic proportions!
Now through September 30, 2018, Spider-Man, Black Widow, Thor, and the rest of the super-powered team is assembling at Disneyland Paris for Marvel Summer of Super Heroes, an epic grand finale to the resort’s 25th anniversary celebration. It’s a unique season of events, special shows, and interactive experiences featuring earth’s mightiest—and most popular—heroes. Here’s what guests will find:
Stark Expo presents: Energy for Tomorrow!
In front of the Hollywood Tower Hotel, Tony Stark invites guests to witness the latest version of his Arc Reactor. It produces green energy, and is a target for Loki, Thor’s mischievous half-brother. Luckily, Black Widow, Spider-Man, and the god of thunder himself show up to foil Loki’s plans in a show that is as action-packed as it is offbeat.
Guardians of the Galaxy Awesome Dance-Off
Cool tunes and groovy moves are central to the Guardians of the Galaxy films, and Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord, brings his love for both to Disneyland Paris. The Guardians of the Galaxy Awesome Dance-Off features Peter Quill and Gamora saving the world with dance—and the help of guests—several times daily.
Marvel: Super Heroes United
This live stage show sees Iron Man and Captain America face off against each other before joining together with Spider-Man, Black Widow, Black Panther, and the other heroes to battle the fearsome Thanos.
Heroic Encounter: Captain America
Steve Rogers dons the Captain America costume to give guests the opportunity to shake hands with the very first Avenger.
The celebration kicked off with visits from Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards, Coronation Street’s Lucy Fallon, Samia Longchambon, and Tina O’Brien, and Scottish singer Tallia Storm.
