McDonald’s is just one place where sweet treat lovers can indulge for free this National Ice Cream Day.

OddFellows is handing out only 25 free soft-serve cones at its carnival-themed pop-up in NoLita on Sunday. Doors open at noon but you might want to get to this 62 Spring St. location early to snag one, especially since toppings include caramel popcorn and cotton candy. (oddfellowsnyc.com)

Happy National Ice Cream Day!
