The Wayfair Labor Day Sale is the time to shop summer clearance patio furniture, rugs, home decor, and more at 70% off or greater discounts. While it's not quite as epic as Way Day, it still delivers on steep markdowns across all of the categories Wayfair carries (bedding, curtains, glassware — you name it). We expect the Wayfair Labor Day sale to come back two Saturdays before Labor Day in 2026.

Can't get enough Wayfair sales? After the Labor Day event, we see Way Day again in October, and then, of course, a Wayfair Black Friday sale in November.

The Wayfair Labor Day Sale is a 11-day, once-a-year event with savings up to 70%.

Wayfair gets in on the Labor Day sales fray with their own 11-day extravaganza. You'll see some Krazy furniture deals, plus markdowns on all of the accessories like curtains, rugs, lamps, and more. For some clearance items, we spot up to 80% off.

KCL predicts the 2026 Wayfair Labor Day sale will run Aug. 29 - Sept. 8, 2026.

Wayfair Labor Day Sale 2026 dates

How do we make our prediction?

Wayfair's Labor Day sale has moved around a lot timing wise of the past few years. It used to kick off the week of Labor Day, but in 2025, it kicked off early (more than a week before Labor Day). We think Wayfair will keep that early timing in 2026, kicking off two Saturdays before Labor Day. Labor Day isn't until Sept. 7 in 2026, so the sale should start Aug. 29. We expect it to run through the day after Labor Day.

Recent start dates for the Wayfair Labor day sale:

  • Aug. 23, 2025

  • Aug. 27, 2024

  • Aug. 28, 2023

The Labor Day Sale is usually the final summer sale for the retailer.

In 2025, Wayfair hosted its Epic Summer Sale from June 12 - 16. After that, we saw a 72-Hour Clearout in July. They also ran a Wayfair Black Friday in July sale from July 24 - 28. Whew!

How does the Wayfair Labor Day sale compare to Way Day?

Wayfair's Labor Day sale brings some serious discounts — we're talking up to 80% off select items. But how does it compare to the beloved Way Day event? Here's the deal: while Labor Day offers solid savings, Way Day typically wins when it comes to sheer variety.

In past Labor Day sales, we've spotted great deals on furniture, decor, and rugs, but the selection feels more limited compared to Way Day's massive 48-hour shopping extravaganza. Way Day just brings more options to the table.

But don't sleep on Labor Day deals entirely. If you spot something you've been eyeing, why wait? Sure, Way Day will roll around again, but if you can snag that perfect coffee table or area rug right now, go for it. Sometimes the best deal is the one that's available today.
