Update — early Prime Day deals are LIVE NOW.
You do not have to wait until June 23. Amazon launched its early Prime Day deals on June 1, with new offers dropping daily through June 22. The four-day main event (June 23-26) layers deeper discounts on top, but the early-deal window is already open. Set price alerts in the Amazon app for any product on this list so you catch whichever tier hits first.
Prime Day 2026 lands June 23 to June 26 — perfect timing for picking up the outdoor sports gear you’ve been putting off all spring, plus the backyard BBQ kit and outdoor speaker setup for the rest of summer. Amazon has confirmed JOOLA, Easton, Srixon, TaylorMade, and the major BBQ brands across the four-day event.
The confirmed outdoor sports and BBQ deal tiers
| Category | Brands confirmed | Max discount |
|---|---|---|
| Pickleball, baseball, golf | JOOLA, Easton, Srixon | Up to 40% off |
| Amazon-exclusive golf | TaylorMade | Confirmed exclusives |
| Grills, griddles, smokers | Charbroil, Blackstone, Traeger | Up to 35% off |
| Outdoor play sets & ride-ons | Jack and June, Springfree, Little Tikes | Up to 45% off |
| Portable speakers (outdoor) | Sony, JBL, Marshall | Up to 40% off |
| Officially licensed merch | NBA, NFL, U.S. Soccer, collegiate | Up to 30% off |
Pickleball — up to 40% off JOOLA paddles
Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in Canada and the U.S., and JOOLA has become the dominant paddle brand for serious recreational players. Their Ben Johns signature line at 40% off is the highlight — these usually sit at $250-$280, dropping to around $150-$175 during Prime Day.
If you’ve been playing with a $50 starter paddle from a sporting goods store, a JOOLA tournament-grade paddle is the upgrade you actually feel on every shot. Power, control, and dwell time on the face all jump.
Baseball — up to 40% off Easton
Easton anchors the youth and adult baseball lineup. The Ghost line for fastpitch softball and the ADV line for baseball both see real Prime Day discounts — usually $80-$120 off the new-season models. If your kid is moving up a division this summer or your beer-league team needs a refresh, this is the buying window.

Golf — up to 40% off Srixon, plus Amazon-exclusive TaylorMade
Srixon’s Z-Star ball line, their irons, and their drivers all get up to 40% off. The Z-Star XV is the premium ball that competes head-to-head with the ProV1 — at Prime Day pricing, the cost-per-round drops materially.
The Amazon-exclusive TaylorMade products are the under-the-radar deals worth watching. TaylorMade-branded items sold only through Amazon during Prime Day historically include training aids, alignment sticks, sleeves of the Stealth or Qi ball lines, and limited gloves. These never discount through normal pro-shop channels.

BBQ — up to 35% off Charbroil, Blackstone, Traeger
Three brands cover the backyard cooking range. Charbroil for value gas grills — the Performance line is the workhorse 3-burner at the entry-level price point. Blackstone for outdoor griddles — the 36-inch is the family size for a Saturday brunch on the back deck. Traeger for pellet smokers — the Pro 575 is the smoker most worth the markup for serious brisket and pork shoulder.
Amazon Basics BBQ tools and accessories see up to 35% off too — a smart bundle move with the grill purchase to consolidate shipping and stack discounts.

- Blackstone 36″ griddle on Amazon
- Char-Broil Performance grills on Amazon

Backyard play — up to 45% off Jack and June, Springfree, Little Tikes
If you have kids and have been thinking about a trampoline or a backyard play set, this is the buying window. Springfree’s springless trampolines are the safety-first option — they cost more than the spring competitors but Prime Day 45% off lands them in price territory worth paying. Jack and June is the wooden swing-set tier. Little Tikes covers the toddler ride-on cars and the cube-style backyard play structures.
Outdoor speakers — JBL, Marshall, Sony, up to 40% off
Cover the deck and the campsite. JBL’s Flip and Charge lines are the all-day battery champions. Marshall’s Emberton II is the design-statement Bluetooth speaker for the back patio. Sony’s SRS-XB line is the value tier with surprisingly punchy sound for the price.
Officially licensed merch — up to 30% off NBA, NFL, U.S. Soccer, collegiate
If you have a fan in the family, Prime Day is the deepest discount window of the year on officially licensed apparel and gear. The deals span jerseys, hats, drinkware, and home decor. Father’s Day-belated gift territory if you missed the original date.
The pre-Prime Day checklist
- Set deal alerts for specific brands in the Amazon app this weekend. JOOLA, Yeti, Traeger, and TaylorMade discount fast and inventory at the deepest tier disappears within hours.
- Check the Today’s Big Deals drop times. Three daily drops at 12:00 a.m. PT, 8:00 a.m. PT, and 1:00 p.m. PT. The biggest single-item discounts (50%+) hit at these moments.
- Bundle BBQ purchases. Grill + tools + cover in one order often unlocks an additional checkout discount that single orders miss.
- If you have a Prime Visa, that’s an extra 10% back on select deals — stack it on top of Prime Day pricing.
