Get a Free Dilly Bar at Dairy Queen for National Ice Cream Day
Dairy Queen celebrated National Ice Cream Day with a Free Dilly Bar offer for eligible DQ Rewards members. The promotion was available from July 13 through July 19, 2026, with a qualifying DQ App order of $1 or more at participating U.S. locations.
A classic Dilly Bar features creamy DQ vanilla soft serve covered in a crisp chocolate-flavored coating. This was a one-time-use, app-exclusive promotion and is no longer available.

- Sign in to a DQ Rewards account or create a free account.
- Choose a participating location that supported Mobile Ordering and Rewards.
- Add one Dilly Bar and at least $1 in other qualifying items before tax.
- Open the Deals section and select the Free Dilly Bar offer.
- Apply the deal to the mobile order and complete checkout.
What Is a Dilly Bar?
The classic Dilly Bar is made with DQ vanilla soft serve covered in a crisp chocolate-flavored coating and served on a stick.
Product availability can vary by Dairy Queen location. Some restaurants may offer different varieties or may not carry every Dilly Bar option.
Original Offer Details
Why We Liked This Dairy Queen Freebie
The promotion gave DQ Rewards members an entire week to enjoy a free frozen treat instead of limiting the National Ice Cream Day offer to one day.
The $1 minimum also made it easy to combine the free Dilly Bar with another menu item, making it an affordable summer treat for people who already used the DQ App.
How Redemption Worked
Members needed an eligible DQ Rewards account and had to place the order through the DQ App. The offer was not designed for redemption at the restaurant counter.
The cart needed to contain one Dilly Bar and at least $1 in other qualifying products before tax. Excluded items, delivery orders, donations, dips, or condiments may not have counted toward the required subtotal.
Good to Know
The Free Dilly Bar promotion expired at the end of July 19, 2026, and the deal is no longer available for redemption.
