Ben and Jerry's Free Cone Day - when the ice cream giant offers customers free scoops - is coming.

The event, which is now annual, sees various Ben and Jerry's stores and kiosks across the country welcome hungry diners.

This year's Free Cone Day will take place on April 10.

Offering free scoops of all your favourites, from Cookie Dough and Phish Food, to Save Our Swirl'd and Chocolate Fudge Brownie, there will be something for everyone.

There's no guest list and no invite, just show up at a participating venue and grab some free ice cream.

Ben & Jerry's first hosted a Free Cone Day in 1979 in the US, as a way to thank customers for their support in the company's first year of business.

It has been held yearly ever since and is now celebrated all over the world.
