The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022 is almost upon us, which means it’s time to start looking forward to some seriously steep discounts. We’re talking major markdowns, the kind that are usually only available to Nordy Club Rewards members. SELF covered the 2021 sale event last year and we found sales on everything from high-quality skin-care products to leggings and hair tools.
With over 100 additional brands added to this year’s sale, Nordstrom shoppers can jump on deals from newly added fashion brands like Free People Cult Gaia, Open Edit, and L’Agence—plus exclusive offers from Nike, Charlotte Tilbury, Kiehl’s, La Mer, Olaplex, and more. Upgrade your wardrobe and home with a bevy of discounted cookware, decor, beauty, and fashion options coming up this July with a variety of price cuts to choose from during this sought-after sale.
Super psyched? As you should be. But what if you’ve never experienced a Nordstrom Anniversary Sale before (not to be confused with the Nordstrom Half Year Sale)?

We’ve got everything you need to know about the upcoming event, from sale dates to how you can access it early. And with Memorial Day around the corner, the retailer has plenty of Memorial Day sales on clothing, beauty, and more to shop.

To kick things off, you can preview the Anniversary Sale beginning June 29. The sale preview gives you an idea of what to add to your wishlist so you get a chance to shop for everything you want when the sale starts. From there, you can also sign in at Nordstrom’s website to check which shop date you’ve been assigned to and prep your bank account for the exciting number of sales headed your way.
You’ll also be able to peruse a digital catalog (new this year) on Nordstrom.com and via the mobile app so you can check out editor picks and other sales-related info. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale catalog makes it easier to find all the best sale prices for the things you want.
If you’re shopping in-store the sale opens to all shoppers during regular store hours and curbside pickup is available for seamless shopping.
What are the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access tiers?
If you’re a Nordstrom credit card holder, you’ll receive Early Access as a special perk reserved just for Nordy Club members. You’ll be granted access to the sale based on your Nordy Club level, which is calculated according to your yearly spend amount. All card members automatically start at Influencer status. You must be a cardmember to shop the Anniversary Sale during its Early Access period.
