During the Disney Experiences Showcase of D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney confirmed the name and details of their new Avengers Campus multiverse attraction featuring King Thanos, coming soon to Disney California Adventure.

Avengers Campus E-Ticket Attraction

The name of the ride is Avengers: Infinity Defense.

The wall next to Avengers Headquarters will come down and guests will assemble with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes for a multiverse mission. It will impact the whole story of the campus.

When guests arrive at Avengers Campus, they will find out that some of Stark’s new multiverse-jumping tech has landed in the hands of King Thanos. Guests will join iconic heroes at locations like Asgard, Wakanda, and New York City.

Construction will start next year. The size of Avengers Campus will double with this and a fourth attraction: Stark Flight Lab.

Disney first announced the new Avengers Campus E-ticket attraction at D23 Expo 2022 but details have been scarce since. It replaces the Quinjet attraction originally planned.

The first concept art released features Marvel superheroes in various art styles attacking King Thanos. Disney said it would feature a “brand-new story that will bring guests into battle alongside their favorite Super Heroes.”

At Destination D23, Disney teased the attraction again with concept art of a ship jumping through a portal above Avengers Campus.

The final ride vehicle, which looks similar to those of Peter Pan’s Never Land Adventure in Fantasy Springs, was revealed this weekend on the D23 floor ahead of the Disney Experiences Showcase. A King Thanos standee was also on display.

A video at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event provides a first look at an ofrenda that will be on display in Plaza de Coco, a “Coco”-themed restaurant on Disney Cruise Line’s new Disney Treasure.

Plaza de Coco Ofrenda

The real-life ofrenda is straight out of the Rivera home in Pixar’s “Coco.” Marigolds are placed in an archway over portraits of Miguel’s ancestors. In front of the altar are pots and baskets of more marigolds, as well as a basket of fruit and bread.

The portraits include the one of Mama Coco seen at the end of the film, surrounded by candles.

Mama Imelda, Héctor, and young Coco are also pictured in their famous torn portrait. Other props include skeletons, shoes, and a guitar made of paper flowers.

The video included clips of Cast Members arranging the props on the ofrenda. Plaza de Coco on the Disney Treasure will have a theater-in-the-round dining room, taking the space held by Arendelle — A Frozen Dining Adventure on the Disney Wish. During a meal of Mexican cuisine “with a modern twist,” guests will enjoy live entertainment from a Mariachi band, Miguel, and his family.

The restaurant will have two shows performed on different nights of the sailing:

On the first night, the story of Miguel and his familia will continue where it left off on screen as they gather in Mariachi Plaza to take guests on a colorful, music-filled journey that celebrates family memories and togetherness. On the second night, Miguel will reunite with his great-great grandparents, Hector and Mama Imelda, by transporting them to Santa Cecilia with the help of his magic guitar for a Día de los Muertos celebration.
