PHOENIX--()--Hero Ventures, the producing team behind The Marvel Experience (TMX), the world’s first hyper-reality attraction, would like to thank the 50,000 plus local fans, families and general audience that came out to support the launch of this groundbreaking touring attraction which previewed to rave reviews in Phoenix/Scottsdale’s Salt River Fields at Talking Stick. The attraction, which also created hundreds of local jobs, completed its run in the area on January 3rd, at which time it headed to Dallas, Texas, for its world premiere on January 15th.

“We wanted to launch in Phoenix because we know how supportive, enthusiastic and gracious the Phoenix fans, sports and otherwise, are known to be, and they indeed did not disappoint,” said Rick Licht, CEO of Hero Ventures. “My partner and I have put five years into the making of The Marvel Experience, and we could not have picked a better place to launch the TMX tour.”

During its month-long presence in the Phoenix/Scottsdale market, The Marvel Experience partnered with over 50 local businesses and created approximately 350 jobs for the community during the busy holiday season.

“We’re very proud of the relationships that were built during our brief stay here, and we will always have a soft spot in our hearts for Phoenix, where we received such overwhelming support and positive feedback from these awesome fans,” said Doug Schaer, COO of Hero Ventures.

The Marvel Experience is a first-of-its-kind, hyper-reality attraction that covers over three acres, encompassing seven colossal Domes, a life-size Avengers Quinjet, a state-of-the-art thrilling motion ride and the world’s only 360-degree, 3-D stereoscopic full-Dome projection theater.
