Burberry Sales FAQ
When does Burberry have sales?
Burberry has a January Winter Sale and a July-August Summer Sale as their two main annual events, both running about 4-8 weeks. UK shoppers also catch smaller sales tied to bank holidays like Good Friday, Easter, and Spring Bank Holiday in May.
Beyond those, there's a Private Sale around May (invitation-based with up to 50% off), plus Black Friday in late November and Boxing Day starting December 26. Unlike fast-fashion brands, Burberry keeps discounts limited to preserve its luxury positioning.
How do I get invited to a Burberry Private Sale?
Private Sale invites go to existing customers who've made purchases at Burberry stores or online. Building a relationship with a sales associate helps—visit a boutique, express interest in specific items, and share your contact details when they offer to notify you about future events or restocks.
Some shoppers report receiving texts or emails about private sales after making even a single in-store purchase. Joining the Burberry community through their official website also keeps you in the loop for campaigns and product drops, though it doesn't guarantee private sale access.
What's the difference between Burberry outlet and retail stores?
Burberry outlets carry a mix of past-season retail items (typically arriving 6-8 months after they're online) and outlet-exclusive pieces made specifically for the outlet channel. Discounts average 30-60% off, with occasional promotions hitting 75% off during peak shopping weekends.
Retail stores and Burberry.com show current full-price collections with limited seasonal markdowns (usually under 30% during official sales). For iconic items like the classic check scarves and Heritage trench coats, outlets rarely discount the most popular styles heavily—you'll find better savings on less traditional colors and designs.
When's the best time to buy a Burberry trench coat?
Target the Summer Sale in July-August for the deepest discounts on trench coats—retailers and Burberry's own site clear spring inventory then. You can also find deals during January's winter sale, though selection leans toward heavier outerwear rather than classic lightweight gabardine trenches.
Department stores like Nordstrom, Saks, and Bloomingdales often discount Burberry trenches during their semi-annual sales and Black Friday events (sometimes 30-40% off). Outlet locations offer lower prices year-round, but the iconic Heritage styles in honey or black rarely appear there at significant markdowns.
Does Burberry offer free shipping?
Yes, Burberry.com offers complimentary standard shipping on all orders in many regions, including the US. Delivery times vary by location—typically 3-5 business days for domestic orders. They also provide free returns within 14 days of delivery or collection.
For faster delivery, express shipping options are available at checkout for an extra fee. Some regions offer Collect-In-Store service where you can pick up online orders at a nearby Burberry boutique within a few days, which also comes free of charge.
When should I buy a Burberry scarf to get the best price?
Buy out of season in summer—the July-August Summer Sale is when cashmere scarves get marked down, even though you won't wear them until fall. Department stores also discount Burberry scarves during their spring and summer clearance events, sometimes offering 20-40% off.
The classic check cashmere scarves in traditional colorways rarely see steep discounts even at outlets, but you'll find better deals on newer patterns and colors. Black Friday and Boxing Day occasionally feature scarf promotions, though inventory moves fast during those peak periods.
How much can I save during Black Friday at Burberry?
Burberry's own Black Friday sale typically offers around 30-50% off select items, starting the week of Thanksgiving. Third-party retailers like Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, Saks, and TheOutnet.com often have even deeper discounts—up to 60% off Burberry products during their Black Friday promotions.
These sales run through Cyber Monday and sometimes extend into early December. Department stores give you more aggressive pricing but smaller selection compared to Burberry.com, where you'll find current-season styles at more modest reductions.
Can I shop Burberry outlet online?
Burberry doesn't have its own dedicated outlet website, but you can shop discounted Burberry through TheOutnet.com (up to 70% off) and designer outlet shopping villages like Bicester Village, which offer virtual shopping appointments and ship internationally.
For in-person outlet shopping, Burberry operates physical outlet stores at locations like Woodbury Common (New York), Camarillo (California), and multiple European outlet villages. These carry past-season items and outlet-specific lines at 30-60% below retail, with occasional extra percentage-off promotions during holiday weekends.
Should I buy Burberry from department stores or the official website?
Department stores like Nordstrom, Saks, Bloomingdales, Harrods, and Selfridges discount Burberry more frequently and aggressively than Burberry.com—think 20-60% off during seasonal sales versus the 30% or less you'll see on the brand site. They also honor their own loyalty programs and return policies.
Burberry.com gives you the complete current collection, complimentary services like monogramming, and access to exclusive online-only pieces. If you're buying full-price or during a Private Sale, go direct. For seasonal markdowns and holiday shopping, department stores usually win on both price and selection.
Do Burberry prices increase over time?
Yes, Burberry raises prices periodically—iconic items like Heritage trench coats have increased hundreds of dollars over the past decade. Price bumps happen across categories (bags, outerwear, scarves) without much advance notice, typically once or twice per year.
This pattern matches other luxury brands and reflects production costs, currency fluctuations, and brand positioning. If you're eyeing a classic piece like the Kensington trench or a cashmere check scarf and find it on sale at a solid discount, buy it now rather than waiting—the next season's version will likely cost more at full retail than what you'd pay for the current one on clearance.
