When is Memorial Day 2023?
This year, Memorial Day is on Monday, May 29, 2023. Memorial Day was officially established in 1967 as a way to pay tribute to U.S. Armed Forces service members — unofficially, its roots go back to the Civil War. It also marks the unofficial beginning of summer, having become an American tradition filled with weekend travel and outdoor gatherings.
When will Memorial Day sales start?
Shoppers can expect to see the most Memorial Day sales occur during the three-day holiday weekend, but savings events have already started. Many brands and retailers announce their Memorial Day sales in the two weeks leading up to the holiday, and some offer early opportunities to save online and in stores. Some sales also extend beyond Memorial Day and into the last few days of May or early June.
