SUNDAY, JULY 19TH / 11AM-2PM

Although Miami Children’s Museum’s doors are temporarily closed to the public, they are still celebrating National Ice Cream Day with a contactless drive-thru Ice Cream Giveaway, sponsored by Florida Dairy Farmers. Take a drive with your family to the Museum to celebrate National Ice Cream Day on Sunday, July 19th from 11AM-2PM and enjoy a sweet treat courtesy of Florida Dairy Farmers and Blue Bell Ice Cream. The drive-thru event is free and open to the public!

The first 1,000 people will receive free individual servings of Blue Bell Ice Cream, plus a goody bag from Florida Dairy Farmers. The system is set up to be a contactless drive-thru pickup, so cars must form a line around the Museum, pull up to the distribution point when it is their turn, then exit the facility after distribution is complete. Guests are required to stay in their cars at all times. It is first come first served while supplies last and no walk ups will be allowed.

So, bring the family down for a sweet treat and celebrate one of the most delicious holidays ever – National Ice Cream Day!
