Las Vegas will be the first stop on Marvel Studios’ “Doomsday Global Tour,” a nine-city promotional run ahead of the release of Avengers: Doomsday. The studio announced the tour Thursday on Instagram with a countdown “Doomsday Clock” and the caption “The Doomsday Global Tour Is Coming,” according to FOX5 and News 3.
What we know so far
- Las Vegas opens the tour. FOX5 reported the tour is set to start here.
- Nine cities in all. After Las Vegas, the listed stops are São Paulo, Gold Coast, Rome, London, Seoul, Shanghai and Toronto, with the tour ending in Los Angeles.
- The movie. Avengers: Doomsday opens in theaters Dec. 18. Robert Downey Jr. leads the ensemble cast as the villain Doctor Doom, and the official description says heroes from three universes face an existential threat.
- Still unknown. Marvel has not said when the Las Vegas stop happens, where it will be held, or whether fans will need tickets. FOX5 noted that further details and dates “have not been shared yet.”
What it means for locals and visitors
Marvel has not said what the stop will look like, but big studio tours often mean fan events, cast appearances or premiere-style gatherings, and a Strip-area event could draw crowds and traffic. With the film opening Dec. 18, the Las Vegas stop would likely land sometime in the next several weeks, during a busy stretch that also includes the Las Vegas Grand Prix and National Finals Rodeo week.
Rideshare drivers and anyone heading to the Strip should watch for the official date and venue announcement. Vegas Daily Wire will update this story when Marvel releases details.
