Walmart officially announced its Black Friday schedule in a press release on Sunday. The retailer will be splitting up its deals into three different events with early discounts starting on November 14 this year. Unlike previous years, the Walmart Cyber Monday sale looks like it will be a one-day only event this year rather than an entire week of deals. Of the three events, Walmart has only offered a sneak peek of its early deals event, but here’s the full rundown of sale dates for the entire Walmart Black Friday schedule this year.
Due to Walmart having separate online and in-store discounts in some cases, these sales are a little bit more complicated than the above image would suggest. Walmart+ members will also get early access to each of these sales.
Walmart Black Friday Schedule
- Black Friday Event 1 – November 14-16 (Online and in stores)
- Walmart+ Members early access – November 13 at 7pm ET/10pm PT
- Black Friday Event 2 – November 25-30 (Online only November 25-27)
- Walmart+ Members early access – November 24 at 7pm ET/10pm PT
- Cyber Monday Sale – December 1 (Online only)
- Walmart+ early access – November 30 at 7pm ET/10pm PT
Walmart Early Black Friday Deals Preview
Walmart+ Membership
50
30-day free trial available. Then it’s $12.95/month, or $98/year.
Alongside the Black Friday start dates Walmart has announced, the retailer also offered up a preview of some of the discounts you can expect in its early sale, which won’t actually start until mid-November. That’s in stark contrast with Best Buy and Costco early sales that kick off on Halloween, but Walmart has promised “thousands of deals” during its three-day event and early access for Walmart+ members.

Is a Walmart+ membership worth it?
Walmart’s subscription service usually gets pushed during sales events like Black Friday as a way to get early access to sales, but it’s the other benefits of the subscription that are worth noting. A Walmart+ membership will automatically get you access to either a Paramount+ or a Peacock premium streaming subscription. This is in addition to the free shipping and delivery on pretty much anything, including groceries. The early access to sales is great if you’re looking to get first dibs on popular hard-to-find products, but for events like Black Friday it’s mostly unnecessary. Walmart will most likely offer some sort of deal on its subscription that will make the other benefits worthwhile at a lower price, so keep an eye out for that if you are interested in becoming a member.
