Get ready!! The Scottsdale Book Festival is welcoming some real-life superheroes to the festival grounds. From 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, families can meet and interact with members of the Arizona Avengers, an all-volunteer Marvel-inspired cosplay and charity group dedicated to spreading joy, positivity, and hope throughout communities across Arizona.
The Arizona Avengers regularly visit hospitals, schools, churches, shelters, and community events, using the power of superhero costumes and character interactions to lift spirits and create unforgettable moments for children and families. As an independent, volunteer-based 501(c)(3) organization, their mission is simple but powerful: bring smiles where they’re needed most.
At the festival, these heroic guests will be walking the grounds, posing for photos, greeting young fans, and creating magical moments that kids will remember long after the day ends. Whether you’re a lifelong Marvel fan or a child meeting their favorite hero for the very first time, this special appearance adds an extra layer of excitement and heart to the festival experience.
✨ Because sometimes, the best stories aren’t just read — they’re lived.
