Thwarted, like many plans by the pandemic, was the opening of the Marvel superhero-themed Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure in Anaheim, US.
But now comes news that the land, which will include a family-focused interactive Spider-Man ride, is set to launch on June 4. The date was unveiled Thursday on a web conference hosted by Josh D'Amaro, chairman of Disney Parks, experiences and products, and featured Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige.
Discussing the land with Feige, D'Amaro joked that the opening date was chosen because it's close to Feige's June 2 birthday.
Disneyland Resort is set to reopen its two theme parks on April 30, with tickets going on sale to the public at large on April 15. A ticket, as well as an advance reservation, will be required to visit Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure. Avengers Campus is in an area of California Adventure that once housed the kid-focused A Bug's Land and will include the thrill ride Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission Breakout!
