What is Black Friday?
Before we reach 2025, it's worth recalling that in the 1970s, many American and Canadian retailers had the idea to revive this birth tradition by launching a day of exceptional promotions to boost their sales and clear out the year's stock.
In the United States, this initiative attracted customers with incredible discounts, but only in stores. Nothing was done online until the following Monday, known as Cyber Monday.
The idea quickly spread across all the states in the U.S. and crossed the Atlantic to finally reach Europe around 2013.
Why is it called "Black Friday"?
One explanation is that on a Friday in November 1887, protesters were killed while advocating for the eight-hour workday in Chicago. "Black Friday" takes on a very sinister meaning here.
A second version speaks of a financial crash that almost occurred in 1869 when two businessmen tried to fraudulently raise the price of gold. The disaster was averted, but the term "Black Friday" was retained, once again in a sense of danger and crisis.
When is Black Friday 2025?
Are you wondering what the date of Black Friday this year will be? The major shopping holiday always falls on the day after Thanksgiving, which means it will be on Friday, November 24, 2025 - the fourth Friday of November.
