It's free cone day at Dairy Queen! How to celebrate spring with free ice cream 🍦

Monday isn't just the first day of the spring season. For ice cream fans, it's also free cone day at Dairy Queen.

To celebrate the start of spring, Dairy Queen is kicking off what it calls "treat szn" (or treat season) by offering a free small vanilla cone to customers at participating U.S. non-mall locations on Monday.

The offer is limited to one per person and lasts all day, while supplies last. The free cones may not be valid on delivery or mobile orders.

For Greater Cincinnati, the start of spring also means the time-honored tradition of reopening the many soft serve and ice cream stands all around the region, just in time for the warmer weather.
