Ben & Jerry's is inviting residents of Seattle to partake in its annual "Free Cone Day" on April 16, where customers can receive a complimentary ice cream cone from noon to 8 p. m. This cherished tradition began in 1979 to celebrate the first year of business and has since evolved into a global event. The company expresses that this day is a heartfelt gesture of appreciation towards its customers, stating, "Every time you enjoy a scoop of Ben & Jerry's, you're showing us how much you care. " With an ambitious goal of handing out one million scoops worldwide, the event underscores the brand's commitment to community engagement.

In Seattle, there are five convenient locations where residents can enjoy this sweet treat. Participating stores include those in Green Lake, Uptown Gig Harbor, Kirkland, Bellevue, and Issaquah. As the festivities approach, the excitement builds, not just for the ice cream but for the opportunity to foster connections within the community. Ben & Jerry's Free Cone Day continues to be a delightful occasion for ice cream lovers and a testament to the company’s longstanding relationship with its patrons.
