Get a Starbucks free cup: Starbucks Red Cup Day 2024!

Starbucks red cup

Red Cup Day is an annual event where Starbucks offers customers a FREE Holiday Cup (aka Red Cup) with purchase! Just order any handcrafted holiday beverage – hot, iced or blended – at a participating U.S. Starbucks store today, November 14th only, and you’ll score a free 2024 limited-edition reusable red cup while supplies last!

This offer was extremely popular last year. Quantities are limited and on a first-come, first-served basis, so you’ll want to plan to get to Starbucks ASAP.

The Starbucks Holiday Red cup is reusable, which is awesome because anytime you bring in a reusable cup for your Starbucks order, you’ll also score 25 free stars AND 10¢ off your purchase!

    Does the drink you order come in the holiday cup or are you given the cup separately?

    • Aerokiki

      Every year that I have gotten the cup, it is separate.

      • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

        Thanks so much for the helpful response! πŸ€—πŸ’ž

      • Tina

        Thank you for answering! 😊

  2. Danielle

    Do you know If I order 2 holiday drinks will I get 2 cups or is it one per order?

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Great question! I believe you get one per qualifying holiday drink you order. You can always double check with your location to be sure on how they will honor it. These are also only available while supplies last. Hoping this helps! πŸ€—πŸ’ž

    • Julie

      I was able to get multiple

  3. Lindsey

    Mobile orders count?

    • Jessica (Hip Sidekick)

      Great question, Lindsey. Yes! Here’s the details – “The reusable red cup giveaway is available however you order, whether ordering in the Starbucks store, in the drive-thru, on the Starbucks app using the order ahead and pay feature, or through Starbucks Delivery (available through the Uber Eats, Door Dash and GrubHub apps). Customers who order delivery through the Starbucks app can have their reusable red cup delivered with $0 Delivery Fee.*” ❀️

    Also you can’t order the holiday drinks without sugary syrup. It’s premade and there are no substitutions allowed.

    • Jessica (Hip Sidekick)

      Hey there, Sue! It looks like this offer is on any handcrafted holiday beverage, so a barista should be able to customize your drink for you. To see a full list of qualifying drinks, be sure to click the “Starbucks” link in our post then scroll down to “See full list of beverages.” Hope this helps! πŸ€—

      • Sue

        My barista refuses to accommodate any request for no sugar or sweetener in the holiday drinks. Boo hoo. Oh well I got the red cup from last year and it should last… like forever.

        • Trish (Hip Sidekick)

          Bummer! Sorry to hear they wouldn’t customize the holiday drinks at your location, Sue! πŸ˜” Glad you were able to score the red cup last year! πŸ’ž
