When does Amazon Black Friday usually start?

It’s pretty standard for Amazon to extend big shopping events like Black Friday. For the past couple of years, you could shop deals for 48 hours, with deals starting the Thursday (Thanksgiving) before Black Friday.

But in 2023, deals were available for an entire week. You could shop the sale starting at 12 a.m. PT on Friday, Nov, 17 until 12 a.m. PST at the end of the day on Black Friday, Nov. 24.

As for Cyber Monday 2023, official deals started at 12:01 a.m. PT after Black Friday and ran until 11:59 p.m. ET on Monday, Nov. 27. That means shoppers could find Cyber Weekend deals for 72 hours. Amazon has been doing this for a couple of years now.

Here is a summary highlight of deals you could shop in 2023, which Amazon originally teased in their press release on. Nov. 5.
