At a glance
This ride is an indoor interactive dark ride. Guests climb into a special vehicle and wear 3D glasses to join a rescue mission. The story takes place during an open house at W.E.B. (Worldwide Engineering Brigade), an organization that develops cutting-edge technology. One of its inventions, the Spider-Bots, malfunctions and starts multiplying everywhere, throwing the whole center into chaos.
Everything relies on motion-recognition technology: there’s no blaster and no controller. You just move your arms, the system reads the gesture, and virtual spider webs shoot out across the screens. The goal is to hit the robots as they escape through four different sets and rack up the highest score you can, on your own or as a team.
The ride moves fast and gets physical, since you have to keep gesturing to hit the targets. It’s a modern attraction that blends physical sets with digital projections, putting you right in the action next to the superhero Spider-Man.
The interactive dark ride where you sling webs. Your vehicle rolls through a lab overrun by Spider-Bots, and you catch them with a simple hand motion picked up by cameras, no controller needed. Your score shows up at the end, and you’ll want to ride again. Teaming up with Spider-Man, it’s one of the most modern rides in the resort.
History
Spider-Man W.E.B. Adventure opened on July 20, 2022 along with the Marvel Avengers Campus area, at Disney Adventure World (formerly Walt Disney Studios). It’s an interactive ride where guests sling virtual webs. It builds on the concept of WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure, which had opened a year earlier, in 2021, at Disney California Adventure (Anaheim).

Skip the standby line whenever you like. Handy in peak season, when the wait often goes past 60 minutes.
A "single rider" line: you fill the empty seats, often much faster than the standby line.
No PhotoPass on this ride.
Usually open during this early slot before the park opens to the public, mainly for Disney hotel guests and Disneyland Pass Gold holders. A good time to ride it with a shorter wait.
Who it’s made for
Pros and cons
The highlights
- Motion-tracking technology
- A fun competition with scores shown on screen
- An immersive waiting area that sets up the story nicely
The downsides
- A fairly athletic ride that can wear out your arms
- Lines are frequently very long
- Some people find the 3D glasses uncomfortable
My verdict
Spider-Man W.E.B. Adventure is an interactive dark ride where you shoot virtual webs with a simple arm motion to catch the Spider-Bots, using motion-tracking tech with no controller in hand. It lasts 5 minutes, has no height requirement, and offers both Single Rider and Premier Access. Added to Avengers Campus in 2022, it’s one of the most interactive rides in the whole resort.
It’s one of my favorite rides at Avengers Campus, because you’ll want to ride it again and again, and competing with friends is a ton of fun. My real tip for a high score: aim for the gold spiders, they’re worth more points, and don’t be shy about using the set to blow up several Spider-Bots in one go. The set pieces also give you bonus points, so don’t ignore them. Fair warning, it’s a real workout for your arms, and you’ll feel it the next day.

Your questions about this ride
01 How can you avoid long lines for the most popular rides?
To skip long lines at Disneyland Paris, I mix several strategies. First, Single Rider is free and really speeds things up on the rides that offer it, including Crush’s Coaster, Flight Force, Ratatouille, and Spider-Man, as long as you don’t mind boarding apart from your group. Next, Disney Premier Access is a paid service that guarantees you priority entry on the headline rides. If you’re staying at a Disney hotel, Extra Magic Time lets you into the park before official opening, and that’s the best time to ride the popular attractions back to back without waiting. Last, heading to the busiest rides during a parade or a big show empties the lines dramatically.
02 Are the wait times posted in the park accurate?
Yes, the wait times shown in the app or on the park’s screens are generally accurate. They’re often equal to or slightly longer than the real wait, which helps you plan your day better.
03 How can I find out if a ride will be under refurbishment during my vacation?
Disneyland Paris posts the list of rides closed for refurbishment on its official website several weeks ahead of time. Since the parks are open year-round, maintenance crews sometimes work on days the park is open, which leads to temporary closures. My tip: check this calendar (or the one on my blog) before you book, especially if there’s one particular ride you really care about.
04 Which rides might scare young kids?
Several rides at Disneyland Paris can be a bit much for young kids, even with no height requirement. Blanche-Neige et les Sept Nains, in Fantasyland, has dark scenes with the witch that can catch them off guard. Les Voyages de Pinocchio also has some unsettling moments. La Tanière du Dragon, beneath Sleeping Beauty Castle, is home to a very impressive animatronic dragon. Phantom Manor, in Frontierland, leans into its ghostly mood and stays pretty intense for little ones. Pirates of the Caribbean switches between cheerful scenes and darker ones. I recommend watching how your child reacts before you board.
05 How far ahead does Disneyland Paris announce ride closures?
Disneyland Paris shares its list of ride closures about 2 to 3 months ahead. For major rides, the park lets guests know about planned construction at least two months before it starts. I recommend checking the official calendar (or my dedicated page) a few weeks before your visit, since dates can change. That way you won’t get the nasty surprise of finding out on the spot that your favorite ride is closed for refurbishment.
