Summertime might bring warm weather and vacations, but the real treat for deal-hunters and style enthusiasts is Nordstrom’s anniversary sale. Below is everything you need to know about the sale event, including the best Nordstrom anniversary sale deals to shop now, and how long the event will last.

What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?

For more than 50 years, Nordstrom’s anniversary sale has marked the department store’s inception with some of its best deals of the year — and really some of the best deals anywhere, for that matter.

More from Rolling Stone

The Nordstrom anniversary sale is unique because you can score massive deals in every department. Designer clothing, white-hot trendy sneakers, outdoor gear, kitchenware and beauty supplies are just a handful of the categories on offer. Plus, unlike most sales, this one isn’t just stuff that didn’t sell last season – it’s also new arrivals from next season. This means you can stock up for fall and find bestsellers that have been restocked.

When is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022?

Although normally held in August, this year’s Nordstrom anniversary sale is started on July 15 at 12:01 a.m. ET / July 14 at 9:01 p.m. PT and will last through July 31. That’s quite a bit of time to shop (especially compared to, say, Amazon Prime Day), but the Nordstrom anniversary sale’s best deals always go quick. In other words, act fast if you find any good pieces in your size.

The Best Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Deals

The only downside to the Nordstrom anniversary sale is its size: There are currently over 6,000 deals in the sale, making it difficult to find the good stuff. To help out, we’ve sifted through the offerings and found some of the best Nordstrom anniversary sale deals to shop right now.
