Burj Khalifa Light Show Features “Avengers”
Every night this week — until April 25th — the Burj Khalifa lights up with different characters from the Avengers. Basically, the light show serves as a “countdown” to the release of Avengers: Infinity War, which brings together our favourite heroes from the entire movie series.
Initially, the Avengers cast include Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Thor, and Loki. Subsequent films introduced new characters: Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Vision, Doctor Strange, Ant Man, Falcon, and Spider Man. Of course, we mustn’t forget the lovable Guardians of the Galaxy — Peter, Gamora, Rocket, Drax, and Groot — plus the formidable Black Panther and the gang from Wakanda!
In the upcoming film, they will be fighting against Thanos, a menacing villain who has his eyes on the powerful infinity stones. The film is expected to last about 2 hours and 29 minutes.
If you haven’t seen the light show yet, head to the Burj Khalifa at around 7:50 pm tonight. You are in for a “colorful” treat! Meanwhile, here is a glimpse of the show, shared by @MarvelousRealm on Twitter:
