As someone who spends a lot of time shopping around for the best deals, I can confidently say Wayfair is one of the best places to score stylish outdoor pieces without blowing your whole backyard budget.
As the resident Style Editor at Homes & Gardens, I keep a close eye on the Wayfair outdoor sales, especially as the weather starts to warm up. But while you might have just missed out on their biggest sale of the year, there are plenty of major deal dates coming up at Wayfair for you to find the best outdoor furniture, lighting, rugs, and more for less.
'There really is something for everyone on Wayfair's outdoor section, from practical shading and privacy screening, to beautiful real-wood patio sets,' says Lindsey Davis, our Content Director for Lifestyle eCommerce.
Still, with so much listed for so little, it's easy to feel spoiled for choice. I've asked Lindsey for her top tips and tricks for shopping in the Wayfair sales below and have personally spent the past few days searching through all the deals, and I’ve found some real gems that are stylish, durable, and seriously well-priced. Let's get down to business.

The best of the Wayfair Outdoor Sale
'I like that Wayfair offers plenty of quality affordable garden seating for entertaining,' continues Lindsey: 'the kind of stuff you can grab for a yard party, then stack in the garage out of season. And, if you do love throwing a good celebration, you will be pleased to know you can also find top-branded grills, hot tubs, and even outdoor toys on Wayfair.'
Scallops are always on trend, and we love the timeless feel of this outdoor umbrella. Available in a few colorways, it can bring beautiful style and cool shade to your outdoor space.

This French bistro-style bar cart is such a versatile piece. Sure, you can use it for serving drinks al fresco (it has ample room for bottles, glasses, and snacks), but it also makes a great poolside side table. Plus, the savings are too good to miss.
I love the organic, slightly curved shape of this handwoven, weather-resistant wicker love seat. The covers slip off easily for cleaning and are a plush 6" thick for extra comfort. It's going to be your favorite catch-up spot.

We hosted a family reunion last summer, and I bought one of these Giant Connect4 sets. The little kids loved it, and I was surprised to see how many adults got into the spirit of the game. Now, we bring it out at every large gathering, so I'd say we're getting our money's worth.
With a whopping 75% off, this classic Adirondack chair is super easy to maintain and comes with a 25-year warranty. Plus, I've never seen one with a handy in-built cup holder before.
Great for upgrading an outdoor kitchen or bar, these wicker Farmhouse-style stools are powder-coated in a brown finish with woven rattan gray and white cushions that come with a Sunbrella fabric seat pad.
When are the best times to shop at Wayfair?
Wayfair is pretty good at spoiling us with plenty of major sales throughout the year. In March, we had the Spring Cyber Week in March and the Big Outdoor Sale event in April, and then all eyes turned to Way Day that ran Saturday 26 April through to April 30.
After all the excitement of Way Day, you can expect Memorial Day at the end of May to bring some huge discounts, as well as the Fourth of July sales.
Typically, the biggest sales of the year come in the fall, but with Wayfair, you're pretty lucky year-round.
Black Friday, and the following Cyber Monday, are, of course, big news, but it is actually the biannual 'Way Day' sale that holds the crown as Wayfair's biggest sale day of the year.
When is Way Day?
Way Day comes twice a year, once in spring and once in fall. Between the two, you'll see greater breadth of deals and depth of discounts in the spring sale. The dates for the fall sale are yet to be released, but judging by previous years, it's likely to be early October.
Is Wayfair a good place to buy outdoor furniture?
The short answer is: yes. Wayfair's product offering of the best outdoor furniture is huge, meaning there is usually something for everyone in all sizes, colors, and styles.
Their website is also really easy to navigate, filter down, and search through, making the shopping experience pretty swift – especially during major sale events.
Once you've refreshed your outdoor space, it's time to turn your attention to your interiors. I've spent hours shopping the Wayfair sale to bring you the deepest discounts on furniture, decor, and appliances from brands such as Martha Stewart and Magnolia Home, so be sure to check out our dedicated piece.
