Dairy Queen Marks 85th Anniversary with 85-Cent Blizzard Promotion
From March 25 to April 6, Dairy Queen fans can grab a Blizzard Treat for just 85 cents through the DQ mobile app. The deal celebrates the chain’s 85th birthday and honors the legacy of its famous frozen dessert.
This limited-time offer includes all available Blizzard flavors, including March’s featured flavor and upcoming releases on the Summer Blizzard Menu.
How to Redeem the 85-Cent Blizzard Offer
The promotion is exclusive to DQ Rewards members using the official Dairy Queen app. To qualify:
- Download the DQ app from your phone’s app store
- Register or sign in to your DQ Rewards account
- Make a minimum purchase of $1
- The 85-cent Mini Blizzard deal will appear in your account within 24 hours
At checkout, open the Deals tab and scan the barcode or enter the 5-digit redemption code if needed.
Limit one 85-cent Blizzard per person. The offer can’t be combined with other promotions in the app.
Promo Dates and Availability
- Valid from: March 25 to April 6, 2025
- Available at: Participating Dairy Queen locations in the U.S. and Canada
- Requirement: In-app redemption with a minimum $1 purchase
Each customer must use a separate app account to redeem the deal. Group redemptions using one account will not qualify.
What Flavors Can You Get?
This deal applies to all Blizzard flavors, including:
- March Flavor of the Month: Mint Oreo
- Fan-favorite return: Confetti Cake Blizzard
- Launching March 31:
- Mixing Bowl Mashup: Brownie batter + cookie dough
- Dipped Strawberry Cheesecake: Cheesecake, strawberry topping, choco chunks
- Returning Summer Menu Blizzards:
- S’mores
- Cotton Candy
- Confetti Cake
The 85-cent price makes it a great time to try something new or revisit an old favorite.
Why This Deal Stands Out
Dairy Queen’s roots go back to 1940 in Joliet, Illinois. The Blizzard joined the menu in 1985 and has since become a fan favorite. This promotion highlights both milestones—85 years of Dairy Queen and 40 years of the Blizzard Treat.
It’s a rare chance to enjoy the dessert at a retro price, available only for a short time.
Quick Tips Before You Go
- Confirm your local DQ store hours before visiting.
- Make sure your app is up to date and you’re logged into Rewards.
- Have your app ready at checkout to avoid delays.
Take advantage of the offer before it ends on April 6. Just make sure you have your app, Rewards account, and a $1 order ready.
