When do the traditional summer discounts in Spain start?

When do the traditional summer discounts in Spain start?

MURCIA- On July 1, the 'rebajas de verano' officially start, but many chain stores and smaller retailers often decide to start earlier with the traditional summer discounts. The tradition of long waiting lines in front of the doors of the El Corte Inglés or at other chains is no longer of this time, but the summer discount period is still very popular. Like many things in Spain, the summer discounts also do not take place in all autonomous regions at the same time.

Traditionally, the summer discounts start on July 1 in Spain, but in some autonomous regions the discounts start earlier. In Madrid, for example, the discounts start around June 21, followed by the Comunidad Valenciana from June 29. In both cases, the discounts last until the end of August or the beginning of September, as in all other regions. However, there are cities where the 'rebajas' signs can already be seen on the shop windows before July 1.

Free discount days
Since the year 2012, it is possible for the shopkeepers in Spain to offer discounts all year round, which means that the traditional discount periods have disappeared a bit. However, the Confederación Española de Comercio (CEC) believes it is very important for shops, retailers and consumers if these traditional summer and winter discounts were to return to the country.

Primeras & Segundas rebajas
Since the sale lasts so long in the summer months, they often divide it into 'primeras rebajas' i.e. the first sale which is usually the first two or three weeks and the 'segundas rebajas' or the second sale which takes place after the second or third week .
