In 2023, the July Prime Day took place on 11 and 12 July – the same date as in 2022.
This year the 11 – 12 July falls on a Thursday and Friday, so we predict the date of the sale will likely shift to 9 – 10 July or 16 – 17 July, to accommodate the normal midweek slot the event normally falls on.

How do I get access to Amazon Prime Day 2024 deals?
To make the most of this Prime Day sale, you will need to sign up as an Amazon Prime member.
If you have never had a Prime account before you can sign up to get a 30-day free trial membership.
This will instantly give you all the perks of a Prime subscription, including access to the Prime Day sale.
After your trial period is up, it’ll cost you £8.99 a month to continue with a Prime membership.
So if you want to avoid paying be sure to cancel at least a day before your trial is due to end.
What home and garden deals to expect on Prime Day?
Whether you’re doing a spot of DIY or looking to replace a piece of furniture or home appliance, the Amazon Prime Day sale is a great place to find a bargain.
Amazon offers extensive price cuts on everything from a stylish garden egg chair to the latest robot vacuum cleaner.
Vacuum cleaners, mattresses, garden furniture, cleaning supplies and DIY tools are always popular with bargain hunters, so it is worth keeping an eye on the limited deal stock levels to avoid missing out on the best discounts.
Over the event, Prime members will be able to shop an array of exclusive offers including flash offers, which are often referred to as ‘lightning deals’.
Lightning deals are only available for a very limited time or while stock lasts.

What date is the October Prime Day 2024?
Amazon has not announced the date of its October Prime Day for 2024 yet.
However, based on previous years we expect the event to take place in the second or third week of October.
As soon as we get further announcements about the event we will be updating this guide with more information, so keep this page bookmarked to stay in the know.
In 2023, the autumn Prime Day event took place on the 10 and 11 October.
The two-day event, which Amazon called the Prime Big Deal Days event, gave Prime members access to thousands of offers across all categories.
During 2020, Amazon cancelled its original July event and replaced it with an event held in October.
Two years later in 2022, Amazon hosted the Prime Early Access Sale on 11 and 12 October, which was the online retailer’s first foray into hosting an autumn event alongside its traditional summer one.
Since then the autumn event has become a regular shopping fixture for consumers who want to avoid the hectic Black Friday bargain-hunting period.
