Marvel’s Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing — The Exhibition Extended One Last Time at Griffin MSI

Chicago — Due to popular demand, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing — The Exhibition has been extended one final time, through August 16, 2026. This will be the last stop ever for this traveling exhibit — fans have just four more months to visit the immersive experience before it closes for good. 

Since its opening in May 2025, more than 350,000 guests have already visited the immersive exhibit featuring original artwork by legendary creators, rare comic books and behind-the-scenes looks at how the “Spider-Verse” leapt from the page to movies, TV and video games. Now even more visitors can see film props and costumes, explore cutting-edge interactive installations and take photos with life-size statues of Spider-Man, Spider-Gwen, Miles Morales and more.  

Artifact highlights include:  

• Amazing Fantasy #15, the comic book that debuted Spider-Man
• Spider-Man suits from 2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man and 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home
• The Green Goblin mask from 2002’s Spider-Man
• Rare notes and corrections from Stan Lee who would often discard his drafts
• Concept sketches, ink drawings and full illustrations of pages from early Spider-Man comic books featuring iconic moments from the Super Hero’s lore, like the introduction of Mary Jane Watson

The exhibit was developed by Semmel Exhibitions in association with Marvel and co-curated by comic scholars Benjamin Saunders and Patrick A. Reed, and designed by acclaimed Berlin-based collective StudioTK. Marvel's Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing – The Exhibition is presented by Bank of America.  

Guests are encouraged to reserve timed tickets for the exhibit in advance at griffinmsi.org/spiderman.
