Get ready, South Florida! Publix is bringing some sweet relief this summer with its new ice cream truck. Sporting the iconic Publix green and white, this mobile delight will be serving up cool treats in various locations across Florida and the southeast. However, Miami seems to be missing out on this frosty fun, and that’s just not cool.
This summer, the Publix ice cream truck is set to visit several cities, including Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Orlando, from June to July. The truck will debut some new Publix Premium ice cream flavors, offering a sneak peek at these delicious additions before they hit store shelves.

For those in South Florida, the truck will be making a stop at the MKT at Las Olas Oceanside Park in Fort Lauderdale on July 6, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Following this, it heads to West Palm Beach’s Brightline station on July 7 during the same hours. So, if you’re in these areas, make sure to mark your calendars for a chance to indulge in these exclusive flavors.
