Of course, the best time to buy patio furniture is whenever you're in the market for some new garden patio ideas. Sure, you can get some better deals at better times of the year (as I'll outline below), but if you're sick and tired of your old sets and are looking to invest ahead of summer, don't wait.

But if you're looking to invest in high-quality yet chic patio furniture without paying full price, timing is everything. Based on my personal shopping experience and insider knowledge as a shopping editor, I can confidently say that typically the best time to buy garden furniture is at the end of summer or during the off-season.

This would be from late August through to October, when retailers begin to clear out their inventory to make room for fall and holiday collections. I know that you're probably thinking about making some outdoor upgrades now for spring and early summer, but the deepest discounts usually hit once the season is winding down. So, if you’re flexible with your timeline, you can get high-end looks for a fraction of the cost.

Naturally, this differs from brand to brand, but typically patio furniture deals start cropping up in early spring and peak during late summer and the fall. You can expect most big retailers to follow a fairly predictable sale calendar, and from my own experience, I've seen great sales starting as early as March or April for some early-bird promotions.

While I can't tell you exactly when to replace your outdoor furniture, as mentioned above, the biggest price drops tend to happen in the off-seasons, so if you're happy to wait this summer out and get ahead for summer 2026, I'd recommend checking out the sales from August onwards.

That said, savvy shoppers will also know that we have some major holiday sale moments coming up, like the much-anticipated Amazon Prime Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day.

What brands have the best patio furniture deals?

When it comes to finding high-quality garden furniture at a great price, it pays to do your research on which brands offer the best value for money in terms of design and durability. I've learned from personal experience that the best patio furniture isn't often the one with the lowest price.

You want to focus on finding well-constructed, weather-resistant pieces that look good and last multiple seasons. Fortunately, several brands strike that balance perfectly, offering stylish outdoor collections with smart seasonal sales and promotions throughout the year.

We all know that you will find great quality at the likes of Pottery Barn, West Elm, and Crate & Barrel, but some shoppers might prefer keeping an eye on Anthropologie, Serena & Lily, and Lulu and Georgia for more trend-led styles. Target’s Threshold designed w/Studio McGee and Hearth & Hand with Magnolia lines, are excellent for smaller budgets or spaces, often combining designer-approved silhouettes with surprisingly durable finishes – and they regularly go on sale during major seasonal events.

You should also keep an eye out for brand-specific dates, such as the Way Day sale, where you can get some of the best Wayfair outdoor sale finds. And we can't forget Amazon Prime Day too. Additionally, certain retailers frequently offer promotions or bundle discounts, so keep your favorite brand bookmarked to find out when they're having exclusive online sales. And my final top tip is to make sure you're signed up to mailing lists to get early access or info on sale events.

What is the biggest patio furniture sale day of the year?

While patio furniture goes on sale multiple times throughout the year, and sure, Fourth of July and Amazon Prime Day bring solid deals, the biggest sale day for outdoor furniture is typically Labor Day. Falling in early September, it marks the end of summer – and with that, retailers offer some of the steepest discounts of the season to clear out inventory.

It’s when you’ll see premium pieces marked down significantly – sometimes up to 60% off – because brands are clearing space for incoming fall and holiday lines. But I'd also recommend having a look during the Black Friday home deals and the Boxing Day sales too, for any remaining clearance discounts.


Now that you're armed with all the key info and calendar dales to help you find the best patio furniture deals, I'd like to help you avoid any major outdoor furniture mistakes by pointing you toward my best outdoor furniture guide which is our little black book of the very best places to buy stylish pieces and everything you need to know about finding the right materials for your backyard seating, dining, and lounging sets.
