Here’s How to Get Free Ice Cream From Friendly’s in Maine, New Hampshire, & Massachusetts
Even though, in recent years, we have seen many Friendly's locations close, there is no doubt that the brand is still well-known for their ice cream.
As a result, it should not be a surprise that they are planning to give out free ice cream for National Ice Cream Day.
The holiday, which is celebrated on the third Sunday (sundae?) of each July, will be on July 19th in 2026.

According to a press release from Maddie Stout at Champion Management, the iconic chain will be giving all customers a free scoop of ice cream, in a cone or dish, on July 19th. Even better, you don't need to be a member of their rewards program. Anyone can walk in off the street and take advantage of the deal.
Friendly's locations in our region include South Portland, Concord (New Hampshire), and Merrimack (New Hampshire). There are also a pile of locations in Massachusetts. Massachusetts Friendly's locations include Agawam, Attleboro, Auburn, Chicopee, East Longmeadow, Fall River, Florence, Gardner, Haverhill, Holyoke, Leominster, Marlborough, Middleborough, North Dartmouth, Norwood, Peabody, Pittsfield, Plymouth, South Weymouth, Springfield, Swansea, and Westfield.
