Three Dairy Queen locations in Anchorage and Wasilla have closed, leaving a single store in Soldotna as the only one left in Alaska.
Daily Alaska staff · July 11, 2026
Dairy Queen locations on Tudor Road in Anchorage, a second Anchorage store, and the Wasilla location have all closed, according to a report from youralaskalink.com. The closures leave the Dairy Queen in Soldotna, on the Kenai Peninsula, as the only location still operating in the state of Alaska.
The Tudor Road store has had its signs removed and closure notices posted on the doors. No statement or announcement has explained why the locations shut down, and no company representative has given a reason for the closures.
The closures mean residents in Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valley no longer have a nearby Dairy Queen. The Soldotna store is now the sole location serving the entire state.
