Dairy Queen brought back their super popular $0.85 Blizzard deal on Monday, March 24, 2025, and we think it will back again in September. DQ app users will find a one-time-use coupon for an $0.85 Blizzard in their app offers, which will get you a small Blizzard for over 80% off, depending on your location. You do need to make an in-app purchase of at least $1 to redeem the $0.85 Blizzard coupon.
Dairy Queen Free Cone Day, which celebrates the first day of spring, and the $0.85 Blizzards are considered the two best Dairy Queen deals you'll get all year.

The Dairy Queen $0.85 Blizzard promo is a twice-a-year event where you can get a small Blizzard for 80% off.
Dairy Queen's $0.85 Blizzard promotion is a nostalgic nod to the year 1985, when the iconic Blizzard Treat was first introduced. This special offer allows customers to enjoy a small Blizzard for just $0.85 (with any purchase), typically available for a limited time through the Dairy Queen Rewards mobile app.
KCL predicts the next Dairy Queen $0.85 Blizzards event will start on Sept. 15
How do we make our prediction?
We've seen this event happen twice a year (in April and September) for many years. But in 2024, Dairy Queen surprised us by not offering it at all. No explanation was given, but we were excited to see it offered again in April 2025. If they're sticking with tradition, we'll likely see another one in September 2025. The last time we saw a September $0.85 Blizzard deal was in 2023, when it kicked off Sept. 11. Since the spring 2025 event started on a Monday, we're predicting Sept. 15 as the start date.
This promotion varies by location. Dairy Queen restaurants are franchised, so it's best to call your local store first to see if they're participating.
