Burrito lovers, take note — Tortilla is bringing back its hugely popular Big Burrito Giveaway for the third year running, just in time for National Burrito Day.
On Thursday 2nd April, the UK’s go-to Mexican fast-casual chain will be giving away 15,000 free burritos to loyal fans across the country — and yes, it’s completely legit.
How to Get a Free Tortilla Burrito
Getting your hands on a free burrito is simple, but you’ll need to act fast. Here’s how it works:
- Download the Tortilla app via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store
- Sign up to the Burrito Society loyalty programme
- On 2nd April, your free burrito reward will be automatically added
- Head to your nearest Tortilla from 3pm to redeem
The offer includes any medium burrito, bowl, or salad, with extras like guac, cheese sauce, and chorizo also covered — making it one of the most generous food giveaways on the UK high street right now.
Why This Giveaway Is So Popular
Last year’s event saw huge queues nationwide, with fans lining up early to secure their free meal. The campaign also sparked viral buzz across social media and pushed Tortilla to the top of the App Store charts, driving over 60,000 downloads in the lead-up.
This year, the brand is going even bigger — serving up an estimated 7.5 metric tonnes of burritos in a single day.
What Is Burrito Society?
At the heart of Tortilla’s success is its loyalty programme, Burrito Society, designed to reward regular customers with perks and freebies.
Members can enjoy:
- Free guac after just two purchases
- A free main after five stamps
- Bonus perks like size upgrades and double stamps
- Early access to new menu items
It’s a smart move in an increasingly competitive fast-casual market, where brands are leaning into rewards and app-based engagement to build loyal communities.
A Word From Tortilla’s CEO
Brandon Stephens, Group CEO at Tortilla, said:
“National Burrito Day has become a huge moment for us and our community. After the response last year, bringing back the Big Burrito Giveaway for a third year felt like a no-brainer – it’s our way of saying thanks, and giving more fans a taste of what we do best: big, fresh, fully customisable burritos.”
Don’t Miss Out
The Tortilla Big Burrito Giveaway is a one-day-only event, available at participating locations nationwide while stocks last — and if last year is anything to go by, they won’t last long.
So rally your friends, download the app, and get ready to queue — because when it comes to free burritos, hesitation isn’t an option.
