BURLINGTON, Vt., April 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- That's right, it's finally here! For ice cream fans around the world, today is anything but a normal Tuesday ? it's the day that Ben & Jerry's honors its annual tradition of giving out free scoops to all.

It's the ice cream maker's way of saying a huge thank you to its loyal fans.
Ben & Jerry's Flavor Gurus have been hard at work to serve up your next favorite scoop. This year, the company added a bunch of new, delicious flavors for ice cream aficionados to try.

If you don't know the story behind Free Cone Day, here are the footnotes ? 1979, first Vermont winter, fledgling ice cream shop, a Ben and a Jerry. The company's cofounders knew it wasn't possible without the fans, so Free Cone Day was born as an annual day of gratitude ? and 45 years later, Ben & Jerry's is still going strong, serving up chunky, funky flavors all across the U.S. and 35 countries globally.
