Dairy Queen Free Cone Day celebrates 75 years

Dairy Queen kicks off its 75th anniversary this spring with a Free Cone Day on Monday.

On this day, the 75th day of the calendar year, participating Dairy Queen and DQ Grill & Chill locations will serve fans a free small vanilla soft-serve cone with the signature curl on top (limit one per customer).

During Free Cone Day, DQ is also requesting donations for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, which raises funds to help save and improve the lives of kids treated at 170 children's hospitals across the U.S. and Canada. Over the last 30 years, Dairy Queen has raised more than $100 million for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in local communities.

American Dairy Queen Corporation, which is headquartered in Minneapolis, Minn., includes more than 6,400 Dairy Queen stores in the United States, Canada and 25 other countries.
