With Supergirl set to soar into theaters later this month, Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Studios are bringing a unique fan experience to Chicago ahead of the film’s release. The Supergirl Intergalactic Rest Stop Tour will make a stop at Navy Pier on Tuesday, June 9, allowing fans to celebrate the upcoming film through themed attractions, exclusive giveaways, photo opportunities, and free food samples.
Supergirl Takes Over Navy Pier
The traveling activation arrives at Polk Bros Park at Navy Pier, located at 600 E. Grand Avenue, and will run from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
According to event organizers, the experience is designed as an “Intergalactic Rest Stop” where visitors can refuel, recharge, and reboot before the theatrical debut of _Supergirl_ on June 26.
Fans can enjoy complimentary snacks inspired by KFC’s Supergirl Ultimate Meal, featuring chicken tenders and new Supergirl-themed sauces. Food samples and giveaways will be available while supplies last.

The activation goes beyond food. Guests will have the chance to pose with interplanetary creatures created by Legacy Effects, the award-winning effects team that contributed practical creature effects for the film.
Attendees can also stop by Galaxy Glow Ups by Joico, where fans can experience superhero-inspired styling featuring the company’s Heat Hero and Hold Hero products.
Organizers are encouraging attendees to arrive dressed as Supergirl or their favorite DC character. Fans sporting their best superhero looks may have a chance to receive exclusive movie merchandise.
A New Era for Supergirl
The event serves as part of the promotional campaign for _Supergirl_, the latest feature film from DC Studios. The film stars Milly Alcock as Kara Zor El, also known as Supergirl. She is joined by Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Krumholtz, Emily Beecham, David Corenswet, and Jason Momoa. The film is directed by Craig Gillespie from a screenplay by Ana Nogueira. DC Studios co-heads James Gunn and Peter Safran are producing the project.

Admission to the Supergirl Intergalactic Rest Stop Tour is free. Fans interested in attending should head to Polk Bros Park at Navy Pier on June 9 between 1:00 PM and 7:00 PM. Those hoping to score giveaways or food samples may want to arrive early, as supplies are limited.
With themed attractions, exclusive merchandise opportunities, and a chance to celebrate one of the summer’s biggest superhero releases, the Chicago stop promises to be a fun destination for DC fans before _Supergirl_ arrives in theaters and IMAX on June 26.
