As national excitement builds for the return of the Lyrid Meteor Shower, Subway is turning this celestial event into a “meatier” celebration for fans across the country. With an uptick in fireball sightings and reports of sonic booms from New Jersey to California, experts and amateur hunters are keeping their eyes on the sky. To mark the occasion, the brand is offering out-of-this-world savings and a chance at an incredible prize for one lucky finder.

On April 21, the peak of the meteor shower, guests can take advantage of a limited-time offer.

These powerhouses are designed for those needing a protein boost, featuring:

Win Free Subway for a Year
While the odds of finding a meteorite are rare, the first person to find and submit proof of a Lyrid meteorite this month could win the galaxy’s first “finder’s free” prize. The winner will receive free food until the meteor shower returns in April 2027.
“We’re once again celebrating the Lyrid Meteor Shower in the only way Subway knows how, by making a homophone a great deal,” said Dave Skena, Chief Marketing Officer, North America. “Enjoy 40g of freshly sliced protein for $6* and keep your eyes peeled, because finding a Lyrid meteorite earns you something better than fame and notoriety: you’re getting freshly made, free Subway for a Year.”
