Guess in which theme park will open the first Marvel land ( the one that already exist at IOA of course doesn't count )? At Disney California Adventure? At DLP Walt Disney Studios? Wrong! It won't be in a Disney theme park and it's at IMG Worlds of Adventure in Dubai, a new theme park opening this August which will be the biggest indoor theme park in the world! The park will also include a Lost Valley Dinosaur Adventure land, a Cartoon Network land and a IMG Boulevard.
It's Falcon Treehouse who designed the Marvel rides and here are the attractions awaiting IMG guests next August.
Avengers Battle of Ultron will be the big E-Ticket ride of the land and will blend stereoscopic 3D media with an elaborate physical environment and special effects to bring the MARVEL Universe to life.

It will be highly interesting to see how good this Marvel land will be for the amount spent, necessarily cheaper than if it was built by Disney. And we'll have the answer in four months from now when IMG Worlds of Adventures will open in Dubai!

How is this possible? Disney owns Marvel and I thought Universal was the only other brand that could use some of the Marvel characters. I also thought they could only do this in Orlando.
What part did I get wrong? Is IMG associated with Universal? What does Disney think about this? Curious.
May be IMG signed a deal for this theme park with Marvel BEFORE Disney bought Marvel...
With Disney not having plans to build a park in Dubai, Isnt this a great way to extend the reach of Disney/Marvel IP across the world?
I really wish Disney would get off their butt and build Marvel themed lands for Disneyland Anaheim and Disneyland Paris. It feels like they're dragging their feet on it. Thanks for the update, Alain.
