Did you know the Amazon Labor Day Sale is kind of a thing? When you think of traditional Labor Day sales, Amazon may not immediately come to mind. (The buzz is usually around the Labor Day sales at Home Depot and Lowe’s. And of course, all the Labor Day appliance sales.) But don’t get caught skipping out on Amazon’s deals. Especially if you want to get a jump-start on your holiday shopping.
The Amazon Labor Day sale ran Aug. 22 - Sept. 1, 2025, and we expect to see the next one kick off in late-Aug. 2026. While you don't need to be a Prime member to shop Amazon's Labor Day sale, membership will come in handy when you consider the free, fast shipping (and all the other Prime member benefits).

The Amazon Labor Day sale is a once-a-year, weeklong (or longer) sale that offers home and summer clearance savings
Amazon’s Labor Day sale usually includes hundreds of deals on home items, plus discounts on kitchen appliances and electronics. Not to mention the nice savings on apparel and shoes and seasonal summer clearance deals on outdoor/patio items.
The sale was 11 days long in 2025. In 2024, the sale ran nine days (Aug. 26 - Sept. 3). That was longer than the previous year’s 8-day Labor Day sale.

KCL predicts the 2026 Amazon Labor Day sale will run Aug. 28 - Sept. 7.
How do we make our prediction?
In past years, Amazon held their Labor Day Sale from the Wednesday before Labor Day through Labor Day Monday. The 2023 sale, however, started on the Wednesday before Labor Day and ran through the following Wednesday. Then the 2024 sale broke the mold again, kicking off the Monday before Labor Day and running through the Tuesday after.
In 2025, the sale ran 11 days, kicking off two Fridays before Labor Day (Aug. 22). We expect similar timing for 2026, meaning the sale should start on or around Aug. 28. If you sign up for a Deal Planner calendar reminder in our app, we'll send you a mobile alert whenever big sales like this go live.
