If you’re planning your Memorial Day weekend, trying to figure out whether to go to the beach or the park or stay on the couch, why not check out a few Memorial Day sales while you’re at it (like Abercrombie and REI, to name a few)? A big, can’t-skip retailer for any shopping holiday is Zara.
When is Zara’s 2026 Memorial Day sale?
We haven’t received word of an official Zara 2026 Memorial Day sale, but we’ll be sure to update this story if any news emerges. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t a ton of noteworthy deals running on the site right this second.
What’s included in Zara’s 2026 Memorial Day sale?
Zara’s unofficial early Memorial Day deals go all the way up to 42% for the styles below, though most are 40% off (and the cheapest item in the sale section is $16). To find these steals, head straight to the brand’s Special Prices sale section for trendy summer styles I was shocked to find at such steep discounts. This page is always live on Zara’s site, so keep checking back for new additions and updated discounts.
These markdowns are comparable to the ones offered for 2025 Memorial Day. Last year, the steepest discount we found was 49%, with most markdowns also coming in at 40%. The majority of our favorite styles from last year cost $50 or less, and that’s definitely in line with this year’s prices.
What should I buy from Zara’s 2026 Memorial Day sale?
I’m a shopping editor who checks up on Zara’s Special Prices page on a weekly basis, so I know a thing or two about what to look out for, and I honestly felt like I struck gold when I stumbled upon the following deals. I was surprised to discover loads of summer-ready styles in Zara’s sale section. I’m talking flirty dresses, baggy dark denim, and strappy sandals all for under $40 apiece. Yup, $40!! The pricier items (though the markdowns are still considered steals) are the jackets (around $70), but these numbers make sense for Zara outerwear.
Ahead, find my favorite deals from the sale section. They include dreamy dresses, Puma ballet shoe lookalikes, trusty denim, and so much more. The steepest discount on this list is 42%, which is impressive for any clothing sale. The best part is that none of my favorite styles cost more than $77 (#winning!). All that’s left is to open a bunch of Chrome tabs, scroll through my top picks, get your credit card ready, and check out with a new and improved summer wardrobe.
