The blockbuster exhibition, which has already attracted almost one million visitors in the USA, will take visitors to Messe Basel on a journey through more than 80 years of Marvel history in comics, films and other media. Walk-through sets, interactive elements and an immersive sound experience by film composer Lorne Balfe bring the comic book world to life and demonstrate the enormous influence of superheroes on global pop culture.
The exhibition is presented by Thomas Dürr for act entertainment AG in partnership with the MCH Group. “It’s great that, after major successes such as Grease, Fame and West Side Story, we are once again doing a project with Thomas Dürr and act entertainment that will appeal to fans far beyond the region. The exhibition also fits in wonderfully with our “Vision Messequartier”, with which we want to play a role in this part of the city and help shape the life of the city and its inhabitants”, says Roman Imgrüth, CEO Exhibition & Events at the MCH Group.
