Avengers Campus[a][2][3] is a Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)–themed area located at Disney California Adventure and Walt Disney Studios Park in Disneyland Paris, and being developed for Hong Kong Disneyland under the name Stark Expo.[4][5][6] The Marvel-themed areas or "lands" are being developed simultaneously at the three parks and inspired by the MCU. However, they instead take place in the "Marvel Theme Park Universe",[7] an alternate universe parallel to it within the MCU multiverse,[8] in which the Blip, introduced in Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and subsequent events did not occur.[9] They are designed by Walt Disney Imagineering, in collaboration with Marvel Studios and Marvel Themed Entertainment.[10]

All three parks had hosted Marvel-themed seasonal events in the past,[11][12][13] which confirmed the demand for the integration of Marvel characters in the parks.

Based on three different continents, the Marvel-themed areas will be defined as the "Super Hero campus" of their specific region, that will help guests to become heroes.[14] Each area will feature mostly different sets of attractions and entertainment, while being strongly interconnected with each other by sharing a common narrative.[15]
