We tested the Avengers Campus, the new area of the Disneyland Paris park: spoiler, we want to live there all our lives
|By Thibault Raoult Editor-in-chief Thibault is editor-in-chief of Purebreak. His passions in life? The sneakers, New York, the PSG, the NBA, the tarama, calling people “my little gueuleton”, screaming in front of Koh Lanta and Beijing Express, without forgetting the best moment in life: analyzing the crossover of the Julyists and the Augustians during the Point Route. D-9. The opening date of the new area of Disneyland Paris is ticked by all lovers of the king of amusement parks. Her name ? Avengers Campus aka the very first area dedicated to the Marvel universe in Europe. Yeah ! PRBK was able to visit this new land for its inauguration. Incredible new attractions, crazy restaurants, Marvel characters at every corner and mind-blowing stores… Here is our opinion and all that awaits future recruits.
Disneyland Paris continues to inspire dreams. 30 years after its opening, and while waiting for the Frozen and Star Wars lands, the amusement park has a new area, Avengers Campus, located a few meters from The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. The opening date is fixed: go from July 20 to discover this extension, located in the Walt Disney Studios park.
Your mission? Join Tony Stark who has decided to train the next generation of Super Heroes. Get ready, recruits, you are not going to be mere spectators and you will be able to help Iron Man, Spider-Man, Captain Marvel, Black Widow, Black Panther and all the others.
2 crazy new attractions
Inevitably, it is above all the two new attractions that will attract visitors. We start with a wonder: Spider-Man W.E.B Adventure, accessible to as many people as there is no size limit. Here, after a few jokes from Peter Parker in the guise of Tom Holland's hologram, everything goes a bit off the rails. No choice, it's up to you to help Spider-Man calm down the Spider-Bots who are wreaking havoc. These little critters are as adorable as they are annoying: very cute, they can build anything a Super-Hero could want. But they are a little uncontrollable and are able to replicate themselves ad infinitum. Spidey is counting on your help to stop them. How ? By giving you the power to throw webs, just like him!
Concretely, equipped with 3D glasses, you will get into a vehicle and, thanks to an amazing gesture recognition technology, you will be able to send your sons with your hands and wrists. The goal ? Stop the Spider-Bots but also blow everything up. Really fun and very well done, Spider Man W.E.B Adventure also offers the good idea of comparing your scores with the other passengers in the vehicle but also with those who made the best scores ever. Get your arms ready!
Two lucky girls present for this inauguration and who made the attraction alongside us are on fire: “we were in the top 10 right away time! We've done it 3 times, we're going back there!“. Further on, another guest visitor also gets carried away: “it's a bit like the Buzz Lightyear attraction, except that the weapon is your hand and your powers, it's phew!“.

Change of atmosphere with Avengers Assemble: Flight Force, an exclusive attraction at Disneyland Paris. There, no more question of letting the little ones be in the game (from 1m20). Iron Man and Captain Marvel are also counting on you to… save the world. Quite simply. After a brief by an incredibly realistic Iron Man, it's time for a violent roller coaster. No, you don't risk anything, except to take insane sensations. Here you are in a vehicle necessarily built by Tony Stark with the aim of warding off what could annihilate the Earth, accompanied by Iron Man and Captain Marvel. Expect to stagger a bit on your way back to the park.
Here, it's hard to get reactions. The first “testers” of the roller coaster just had a smile on their face, torn between laughter and shock. Yes, it really shakes.

A shop to equip yourself like an Avengers
Here too, we stick to the basic idea: how to equip a future super -hero? 350 new products available exclusively in the Avengers Campus await you at Mission Equipment. We fell in love with a futuristic bag, a hot Avengers Campus sweatshirt or a hoodie dedicated to the Avengers Assemble: Flight Force attraction. All offered in the most inclusive way possible, gender neutral and with a wide choice in both small and larger sizes. And where Disneyland Paris and its teams have done very well is that certain products can be used in the Spider Man W.E.B Adventure attraction.

The WEB Power Bands allow you, for example, to have access to advanced functions to defeat the Spider-Bots. They exist in Spider-Man version but also Iron Man or Doctor Strange with effects adapted to the character. Not essential to make the attraction, we reassure you, but a real plus very nice! The famous Spider-Bots are also of course there in a super cool remote-controlled version. Box guaranteed!

A delirium pushed right down to the plate and the glass
As for the break to pick up a little/a lot energy, direction Pym Kitchen or Stark Factory. At the first, you are in a lab with waiters and waitresses in blouses. A magnificent and very good self-service restaurant where very bizarre experiences are mixed: food grows and shrinks everywhere. Mini burgers rub shoulders with giant hot dogs, XXL croutons are found in the Caesar salad, salt, pepper and oils are in tubes and vials and even the wine is… blue.
At the Stark Factory, change of atmosphere, you are in Tony's lair. We are particularly welcomed by the incredible Hulkbuster, the huge armor created to counter the Hulk. Enough to get a slap in the face as soon as he arrives.

Avengers everywhere, all the time…
Between the attractions, the shop and the restaurants , no respite. Expect to go no more than 5 minutes without encountering an Avengers! Between two shows that are as spectacular (on the roofs of the Avengers Campus!) as they are funny (with the Guardians of the Galaxy), you can take pictures with your favorite Super Heroes. There is even a dedicated place for this: the Training Center, where you can train with Captain Marvel or Iron Man! A dynamic animated sequence, with no less than 27 cameras, awaits you. Don't forget to book your slot on the Disneyland Paris app!
If Disneyland Paris already had plenty to make us dream of with its parks and zones, this Avengers Campus is a real nugget that will make you rediscover the park with joy and excitement. It's beautiful, it's fun, there's something for those who just like to have fun and/or for those who want to have their heads turned in all directions… Flawless waiting for you from July 20 and to complete if you can with a stay in the sublime Disney Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel for a 200% immersion.
