When is Black Friday at Walmart?

Last year, Walmart split Black Friday into three different events, called the Walmart Black Friday Deals for Days event, with early sales starting online November 4 and in stores November 7. With global supply chain issues making it crucial to start your holiday shopping early in 2021, we predict that Walmart will once again start its Black Friday deals early — and that those deals will progressively get better as we approach Black Friday itself.

While we know that Walmart will be closed on Thanksgiving Day this year, the retailer has not yet released its Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2021 hours for November 26. But, last year Walmart stores opened at 5 a.m. on Black Friday, with online deals starting at 12 a.m. ET. We're predicting that Walmart's Black Friday opening hours will be similar in 2021, but we'll keep a close eye on Walmart updates as the big day approaches, the update this story accordingly.
