The action stunt spectacular Marvel Universe LIVE! will be debuting in Vancouver on June 18th and to ramp up excitement, a costume contest was held at Pacific Coliseum Plaza on Wednesday, June 10th, 2015. All the costumed Marvel fans were given a free ticket to the opening night performance as a thank you for participating.

Participants were judged in three categories - best hero, best villain, and best child costume. Winners received VIP tickets to the show and super cool Marvel swag.
 The kids were having a SUPER time.

Thor, Captain America, Winter Soldier, Loki, Deadpool, Spiderman, Venom and more showed up to the costume contest.











The performers who play Agent Maria Hill and Thor in Marvel Universe LIVE! were also present to sign autographs and take pictures.




I also had to opportunity to interview the performers! They were very excited about Marvel Universe LIVE! and encourage everyone to come out to watch them perform their super cool stunts!

Here's the video interview:

Marvel Universe LIVE! will debut in Victoria, playing June 11th – 14th at the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre, followed by the Vancouver performances at the Pacific Coliseum at the PNE from June 18th – 21st.
