Updated 2026.

When do Avengers: Doomsday tickets go on sale?

Avengers: Doomsday tickets went on sale on July 20, 2026, about five months before the December 18 release date. Disney opened the first wave for Infinity Vision premium-format theaters, then expanded to standard showtimes closer to opening weekend. The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the July 20 presale date and the 165 minute runtime at the time of the announcement.

If you missed the first wave, more showtimes are added in the weeks before release. The best strategy is to check ticketing apps daily, especially after the final trailer drops and when Christmas Day showtimes are added.

Where to buy Avengers: Doomsday movie tickets

You can buy Avengers: Doomsday movie tickets from the major theater chains and ticketing platforms. All of them sell the same seats, but each has different fees, rewards programs, and premium-format availability.

How much do Avengers: Doomsday tickets cost?

Avengers: Doomsday ticket prices vary by format, location, and time of day. Standard 2D tickets typically range from $12 to $18 for adults in the United States. Premium formats cost more, and evening and opening-weekend shows carry the highest prices.

Matinee showings before 5 p.m. are usually cheaper. Child, student, and senior discounts can cut $2 to $5 off the base price. Opening night and Christmas Day shows are the most expensive and sell out first.

Infinity Vision vs IMAX: which format should you choose?

Infinity Vision is Disney's new large-format brand for Avengers: Doomsday, created after Warner Bros. locked IMAX screens for Dune: Part Three. Infinity Vision screens are bigger, brighter, and more immersive than standard screens, and Disney is positioning it as the way the film is meant to be seen. IMAX remains a strong alternative with its own giant screens and sound systems.

If you want the largest possible image and the most premium experience, choose Infinity Vision when it is available at a theater near you. If Infinity Vision is not offered locally, IMAX is the next best choice. Standard 2D is fine for a casual viewing, but a multiverse battle with Doctor Doom benefits from a big screen.

What is the Avengers: Doomsday runtime?

Avengers: Doomsday has a reported runtime of 165 minutes, or 2 hours and 45 minutes. The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the runtime when tickets went on sale. That makes it longer than Avengers: Infinity War at 149 minutes but shorter than Avengers: Endgame at 181 minutes.

Plan for a long evening. With trailers and previews, expect to be in the theater for about three hours. The film is not rated yet, so check your local theater listing for age restrictions.

Who is in the Avengers: Doomsday cast?

Robert Downey Jr. returns to the MCU, but not as Iron Man. He plays Victor von Doom, also known as Doctor Doom, the villain of the film. The cast brings together heroes from three distinct universes, including Avengers and X-Men characters.

• Robert Downey Jr. as Victor von Doom / Doctor Doom
• Chris Evans as Steve Rogers
• Chris Hemsworth as Thor
• Pedro Pascal as Mister Fantastic
• Anthony Mackie as Captain America
• Paul Rudd as Ant-Man
• Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova
• Sebastian Stan as Winter Soldier
• Vanessa Kirby as Invisible Woman
• Patrick Stewart as Professor X
• Ian McKellen as Magneto
• Tom Hiddleston as Loki
• Simu Liu as Shang-Chi
• Letitia Wright as Black Panther
• Channing Tatum as Gambit

The film is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, who also directed Infinity War and Endgame. It is the 39th installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and a sequel, Avengers: Secret Wars, is set for 2027.

What is Avengers: Doomsday about?

Avengers: Doomsday follows beloved heroes from three distinct universes as they are set on a deadly collision course and face an existential threat unlike anything they have encountered. The logline, shared by Disney and Fandango, confirms that the Multiverse Saga begins its final chapter in this film. Doctor Doom is the central threat, and the Avengers and X-Men are forced to confront him together.

Plot details beyond the logline have not been confirmed. The first trailer, released alongside the ticket presale, teased an epic battle between the Avengers and the X-Men against Doctor Doom.

How to get the best Avengers: Doomsday seats

Opening weekend premium shows sold out quickly, with Thursday December 17 and Friday December 18 Infinity Vision showtimes largely sold out after the first day of presales, according to Variety. To get good seats, follow these steps.

1. Create accounts on Fandango and your local theater chain before tickets go on sale.
2. Save your payment method so checkout takes seconds.
3. Set a reminder for the presale date and time.
4. Check for added showtimes, especially on Christmas Day and the following weekend.
5. Buy directly from the theater to avoid third-party markup.

If opening weekend is sold out, more showtimes are typically added. Christmas Day and the weekend after release usually have the widest availability.

Avengers: Doomsday box office expectations

Avengers: Doomsday is predicted to have one of the biggest debuts of the year. First-day presales hit $16.5 million, which is twice the first-day figure for Deadpool and Wolverine, according to Variety. Deadpool and Wolverine opened to $211 million and ended with $1.3 billion worldwide.

The film opens on the same day as Dune: Part Three, a clash that some are calling Dunesday. Together, the two releases could produce one of the biggest collective weekends in box office history. The three biggest weekends to date were Avengers: Endgame at $402 million collectively, Avengers: Infinity War at $314 million, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens at $313 million.
