HUB Ice Cream is taking its vintage ice cream truck to the streets of Tucson for an “a la road trip” on Saturday, June 5 and Saturday, June 12.

“We are so excited to formally introduce Tucson to our vintage Model-T ice cream truck,” said Kristel Johnson, HUB Ice Cream’s General Manager. “I have memories as a kid of running out to get a sweet treat from the ice cream truck. Those nostalgic moments stand out in my mind and are really special.”

The tour is going to be pretty sweet, too, with an opportunity to score yourself a free scoop of ice cream.

If that’s your cup of tea — or cup of pistachio ice cream —  all you need to do is take a photo of yourself with the truck and share it on social media. Additionally, you’ll need to tag @HUBIceCream in order to get the freebie, which can be redeemed at downtown’s HUB Ice Cream Parlor until Wednesday, June 30.

“Our goal is to provide that memorable experience for others through the delicious, high-quality ice cream served out of our charming, vintage truck,” said Johnson.
