Marvel’s Disneyland footprint is EXPANDING!
This weekend, Disney hosted the massive D23 Ultimate Fan Event in Anaheim, California. The major convention broke news from across Disney’s spectrum of offerings, including films, television streaming, video games, and parks.
One of the biggest announcements of the weekend came with the reveal of a BRAND NEW expansion to California Adventure’s Avengers Campus. Initially opened in 2021, the land marked the first full Marvel-themed area in a U.S. Disney park. Now, the land is about to make like Giant-Man and get LARGER.
With a little help from Deadpool himself, Disney announced TWO new Marvel attractions coming to the land.

Avengers Infinity Defense will have guests join in battle across the multiverse alongside the Avengers to defeat King Thanos and recover stolen Stark technology.
First up is the LONG-AWAITED Avengers E-Ticket. Teased at events going back to 2019, the latest and final version of the attraction will be called Avengers Infinity Defense.
Disney describes the new attraction’s plot as such: “Technology that allows the Avengers to jump between worlds has gone missing, and King Thanos is using it to wreak havoc everywhere. Recruits will travel to iconic locations like Asgard, Wakanda, and New York City alongside the likes of big and small heroes. You also just might find yourself face-to-face with King Thanos, too.”

In Stark Flight Lab, “you’re going to sit in two-person pods and deploy to a test station. Then a robot arm grabs your pod and starts whirling you around in a simulated flight.”
Avengers Campus — and, in turn, Marvel’s presence at the Disneyland Resort — is about to grow considerably when ground breaks on these rides next year. Stay tuned to DFB for further D23 updates!
