Amazon has announced the launch of a second Prime Day event next month, separate from their Black Friday 2022 sale. The retail giant will host a new two-day shopping event exclusive to Prime members.
Beginning on October 11 at midnight (BST), the event will give members a chance to kick off the festive shopping season early with hundreds of thousands of deals globally, from fashion and electronics, to toys and everyday essentials. Taking place in the UK, U.S and several other countries globally the event comes six weeks ahead of Black Friday 2022.
Prime members will find top brands such as Shark, Nespresso, Philips, Oral-B, Samsung, Xiaomi, iRobot, LEGO, Melissa & Doug and Hasbro reduced, and some incredible savings on top of Amazon’s already low prices.

Amazon has said this new, exclusive Prime benefit will provide an additional opportunity for members to get their hands on what they need, for less, whilst helping to spread out their seasonal spending.
“Across the UK, our Prime members will get the opportunity to start shopping some of the season’s top deals before anyone else with Amazon’s new Prime early access sale,” said John Boumphrey, UK Country Manager of Amazon.
“You may not be ready for panto and mince pies but with fewer than 90 days until Christmas, it’s not too early to start planning your shopping for the festive season ahead, and this exclusive 48-hour sales event will help people save money and shop smarter as we head into the festive season.”
Shoppers can save the Amazon landing page here for the Prime Early Access sale which starts on October 11th at 12am. Those who are not signed up to Amazon Prime won't be able to get the prices offered in the sale. However, Amazon is offering a free 30-day trial to Amazon Prime here, so shoppers could sign up now for the free trial and cancel later if they want to take part in the sale.
Amazon Prime membership includes exclusive savings, convenience, and digital entertainment and more, for £8.99 per month or £95 per year. Prime Student members can also take advantage of the epic deals across the 48-hour event as part of their membership, which is £4.49 per month. Those studying can sign up for a six-month trial of Prime Student at amazon.co.uk/joinstudent.
Whilst Christmas is still a couple of months away, October is said to be a good time to get organised and spread out some of the season’s shopping, whether that is gift buying or simply stocking up. Prime members don’t have to wait to take advantage of new and existing Prime benefits and offers.
