Raising Cane’s Set to Open First Apple Valley Location on January 21 with Grand Opening Giveaways

APPLE VALLEY, Calif. (VVNG.com) — Raising Cane’s, one of the fastest-growing restaurant brands in the nation, will celebrate the grand opening of its first Apple Valley location on Wednesday, January 21, 2026, with early morning festivities, free giveaways, and community donations.

The new restaurant, located at 19399 Bear Valley Road, will open its doors at 9 a.m., but customers are encouraged to arrive early for a chance to win exclusive prizes.

According to a written statement, the first 100 customers to purchase a Combo in-store will receive a Raising Cane’s branded hat and a Box Combo card for a future visit, while supplies last.

One of the most anticipated giveaways is the “Lucky 20” drawing, where 20 customers aged 13 or older will win “Free Cane’s for a Year.” Entries for the drawing will be accepted between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m., and participants must be present to win.

The grand opening celebration will include a DJ, a gift basket for the first customer in line, performances by the Apple Valley High School cheer squad, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11:30 a.m. with the Greater High Desert Chamber of Commerce and Raising Cane’s Crew. Additionally, Raising Cane’s will present $1,000 checks to Apple Valley High School’s Department of Athletics and Apple Valley Little League.

“We’re really feeling the ONE LOVE here in the High Desert,” said Area Leader of Restaurants TJ Kemper. “Our growth is a testament to our commitment to this great Community and we’re excited to open our doors and build something magical with our Crew and our new Apple Valley Customers.”

This new Apple Valley location follows the brand’s first High Desert restaurant, which opened in Barstow in 2021. Raising Cane’s is known for its premium chicken fingers, Cane’s Sauce®, crinkle-cut fries, and fresh-squeezed lemonade. The restaurant prides itself on freshly prepared food with no heat lamps or warmers.

The restaurant will be open from 9 a.m. to 1 a.m. Sunday through Wednesday, with extended hours until 2 a.m. Thursday through Saturday.
