Stop by a participating location for a FREE small vanilla soft-serve cone with its signature curl on top.

Free Cone Day marks the beginning of “Treat Szn” – the time of year when the weather warms, and the only things that should be cold are sweet treats that come in a cone or cup.

Limit one per customer. Note: Check the location near you to see if they are participating; mall locations typically don’t participate) For Dairy Queen locations, click here.

The offer is not available on digital or delivery orders.
