What Is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day is an exclusive two-day deal event reserved for Prime members. There will be sales across the site and across over 35 categories, from fashion to beauty to home and beyond. 2024 will be the 10th Prime Day since the event’s inception in 2015.
When Is Amazon Prime Day?
Prime Day 2024 will take place on July 16-17, starting at 12:01 a.m. PDT on the 16th.
In recent years, Amazon has also added a second Prime Day-level event to its calendar, so we expect the same going forward as well. Last year, Prime Day took place on July 11-12, while Prime Big Deal Days took place on October 10-11.
Do I Need to Be a Prime Member to Shop?
Yes! While Amazon features great deals for all shoppers year round, a Prime membership will allow you to nab all of the exclusive markdowns and perks that come with Prime Day. Your membership also comes with fast, free shipping on eligible items, plus benefits like Prime Video, unlimited full-resolution photo storage on Amazon Photos and free Grubhub+.
How Do I Become a Prime Subscriber?
This is the best part — you can sign up for a free 30-day trial before Prime Day to reap all of the benefits. For everyone else, it’s just $14.99 per month or $139 per year.
What Is on Sale During Amazon Prime Day?
The better question is, what isn’t on sale during Prime Day? We can expect markdowns on everything from Amazon devices to trendy fashion brands and big-ticket items like Dyson hair tools and Apple products.
According to DealNews some of the most popular deals from 2023 included an Amazon Fire TV, the Dyson Cyclone V10 vacuum and a Dewalt Impact Driver Kit, with Temptations cat treats taking the top slot.

How Can I Start Preparing?
Once you’re signed up for Prime, you can start prepping in multiple ways. For instance, add products to your wish list or cart, and Alexa can send you a notification when a deal is available.
We’ll also see the return of exclusive, invite-only deals: Prime members can request an invitation from the product page near the “Add to Cart” button.
You can set your own deal notifications as well. Visit the Prime Day Event page on your Amazon Shopping app to get started!
