In this guide, we’ll explain what Black Friday is all about, highlight key Kiwi retailers jumping into the action, and show you why using a price comparison site like PriceMe can make a huge difference in getting the best bargains.

Does New Zealand Do Black Friday?

Absolutely! Black Friday has grown into one of the busiest shopping days across the country, just behind Boxing Day for online visits on PriceMe. More Kiwis are now tuning in to score big savings every year.

When is Black Friday in NZ 2025?

Mark your calendar for Friday, 28 November 2025 — that’s when the main event happens here in New Zealand.

What is Black Friday?

Black Friday started in the US, landing the day after Thanksgiving and signalling the start of the festive shopping season with deep discounts across stores, both in-person and online. In New Zealand, it’s caught on fast as a major shopping day, with retailers offering steep price cuts on everything from electronics and gadgets to fashion and home goods.

How Long Do Black Friday Sales Last in NZ?

Despite the name, Black Friday sales tend to stretch well beyond a single day. Kiwis can expect deals kicking off during the week leading up to Black Friday and running through to Cyber Monday, the Monday after Black Friday. Many stores keep the offers flowing through the following week, sometimes until early December. So, plan your shopping window roughly from Monday, 24 November to Sunday, 7 December 2025 for the best chance to catch all the sales action.
