CRANFORD, NJ — The wait is almost over. Cranford's popular event, Souperhero Stroll, is returning this weekend.

More than 30 superhero balloon sculptures will be on display throughout the downtown — including Black Panther, Storm, Batman, Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, Wolverine and more.

In addition, over 20 local restaurants will offer a variety of soups at the event, from New England clam chowder to broccoli cheddar, according to Downtown Cranford.

Kids are encouraged to dress up in superhero costumes or wear their favorite capes. This event will take place rain, snow or shine.

Organizers will also be collecting canned soup to donate to local food banks. Their goal is to get to 2023 cans to celebrate the CHS Class of 2023. Any donation is welcomed and it can be brought to registration the day of the event.

Attendees can pick up their pre-purchased tickets on the day of the event starting at 11:30 a.m. at Eastman Clock Plaza (across from Track 5 Coffee). Soup tastings will end at 4 p.m., so people are advised to arrive with plenty of time to sample all the selections.
