Avengers STATION Las Vegas (Review)

Giveaway Winner Announced!

CONGRATULATIONS to the winner of our giveaway, Tammara! Please check your email for all the details. Thank you to everyone that entered, there are more giveaways coming up. 

Imagine seeing your favorite superhero's weapons up close. Think about trying to pick up Thor's hammer. Or letting Ironman control your brainwaves. Have you ever wanted to measure up to the Hulk?  

Now you can do all this and more at 
Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. (Scientific Training and Tactical Intelligence Operative Network). Las Vegas is home to the newest Headquarters where visitors can enter training to become certified agents of S.T.A.T.I.O.N. 

My family had the opportunity to experience Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. and while we all enjoyed it my 4 year old was in complete awe to see his favorite heroes' uniforms, labs and weapons IN REAL LIFE. "I knew they were real!" he exclaimed and as we walked through the Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. it really did feel that we were part of the superhero world. 

The adventure begins with a briefing before heading in for training. You can download the app on your device or rent one from the 
S.T.A.T.I.O.N. For me this was a must because you get to hear about each character as you walk through their area, take pictures to later turn into a collage and track your training progress.

The setup is similar to that of a museum but much more interactive and hands on. My 11 year old liked that she could listen to each character's story while interacting with various parts of that story. We were able to walk through at our own pace, spending as much time as we wanted in each room. There is a lot to look at and each area has at least one interactive game and many interactive displays. When we finished in a room we would take the test to move on to the next training level.

Our training was put to the final test with a battle of good vs evil. This was my husband's favorite part. We put all our training skills to use to fight the virtual monsters and came out as victorious certified S.T.A.T.I.O.N. agents.
