Amazon has announced that its fall Prime savings event, officially called Prime Big Deal Days, will take place on Oct. 6 and Oct. 7, 2026, according to Mashable.

What happened

The 48‑hour sale follows a pattern of Amazon offering a spring "Big Spring Sale" and a summer Prime Day, but this year the flagship summer event was moved to June, prompting the retailer to return to a fall schedule. Early‑bird deals are already appearing on the site, and the official two‑day window is set for the first weekend of October.

What the report adds

Mashable notes that while Amazon holds sales throughout the year, Prime Day technically occurs only once annually in the summer; the fall event is a separate promotion that many shoppers refer to as "October Prime Day." The outlet also mentions that the October sale follows a week‑long "Big Spring Sale" that has run for the past three years, though those spring deals are described as less deep than the October discounts.

How it came about

Amazon’s shift of its flagship summer Prime Day to June this year created a gap that the retailer filled with a fall promotion.
