Is Amazon Prime Day 2025 in July or October?
The main Prime Day event takes place in July. However, Amazon also runs a separate autumn sale called Prime Big Deal Days in October. Both are exclusive to Prime members. The July event is the larger of the two, offering what Amazon describes as “millions of deals” across categories, with special daily deal drops in Europe called Today’s Big Deals during the event. UK customers can also use Amazon’s AI assistant, Rufus, to ask questions about Prime Day and get tailored product information.
How long does Amazon Prime Day 2025 last?
For 2025, the summer event has been extended to four days: from Tuesday, July 8 through Friday, July 11. Previous years typically ran for 48 hours. The October Prime Big Deal Days remains a two-day event. This expansion signals Amazon’s push to maximise sales volume during the summer period.
What is Prime Big Deal Days 2025? Understanding the October Event
Prime Big Deal Days is Amazon’s autumn deal event, introduced in recent years as a lead-in to the holiday shopping season. In 2025 it runs on 7–8 October and is exclusive to Prime members. The event competes with early Black Friday promotions from other retailers and offers a second chance for shoppers to snag discounts before the end of the year.
What is the difference between Prime Day and Prime Big Deal Days?
While both events are Prime-exclusive, they differ in scale and timing. Prime Day in July is the flagship sale, typically featuring the widest selection of deals across all categories. Prime Big Deal Days in October is more focused on early holiday shopping, with strong discounts on electronics, toys, and home goods. Amazon has not released specific deal counts for the October event, but it is generally smaller than the July sale.
If you can only shop one event, Prime Day in July offers the broadest selection. However, the October sale is useful for holiday gift planning and may include seasonal categories like toys and kitchen appliances.
