Free Ice Cream Cone for Free Cone Day
Most of all of us love ice cream cones! How about a free ice cream cone? Usually, each year on the First Day of Spring Dairy Queen gives away a free vanilla ice cream cone. They do this to help raise money for Children’s Miracle Network.
Free Cone Day is only at participating non-mall locations.
Did you know in 2020, there was no cone day due to COVID.
March 19, 2024! Which is the 8th annual event.
The Famous Curl!
The famous cone with the iconic curl on top takes center stage on free cone day as the Dairy Queen® system offers up a celebratory sweet giveaway.
