Looking for an excuse to book that next getaway? Black Friday has your back. While the big day isn’t officially until Friday, November 28, most brands are kicking off the sales early – and you should too! Did someone say early Christmas present?

We’ve rounded up all the craziest airline, hotel and tour sales happening right now. Take a peek – you’d be silly not to cash in on these epic discounts. Need inspiration on where to go? Here are the best places to travel in Australia in 2025.

What is Black Friday?

Black Friday is basically a massive sale day, with retailers offering huge discounts on everything from fashion and electronics to home goods and, our favourite, travel. It happens the day after Thanksgiving in the US, but it has become huge worldwide, including in Australia.

When is Black Friday in Australia?

In 2025, Black Friday falls on Friday, November 28. It’s the same day as in the US, but Aussies often see the sales kick off a few weeks prior and extend through the weekend into Cyber Monday (December 1).
