Martin Luther King Jr. Day honors the groundbreaking work of minister and civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. There are many meaningful ways to remember King’s legacy, including learning about voting rights, revisiting one of King’s many historic speeches, and supporting Black-owned and managed businesses such as Clare, Fenty Beauty and Briogeo Hair.
While MLK Day is not typically a large shopping holiday, the event happens to fall between seasons, so many retailers offer markdowns on mattresses, smart tech, furniture, clothing and more to make way for new inventory. This year, the three-day weekend includes massive deals on several most-wanted brands, like Tuft & Needle and Kate Spade.

When is MLK Day 2022?
Historically, MLK Day is observed on the third Monday in January. This year, the federal holiday falls on Monday, January 17. The annual day of remembrance celebrates the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., although King’s actual birthday falls on January 15.
How to celebrate MLK Day
Take a step back and observe MLK Day by learning more about the late civil rights leader’s mission. Educating yourself about systemic racism and voting rights are just a couple of ways to commemorate the day. Revisit history by remembering the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and honoring his lasting impact on the world by reading his many historic speeches.
Meanwhile, you can celebrate the beauty of the United States by heading to a National Park. This year on MLK Day, all 423 National Park Service locations will waive entrance fees in honor of the civil rights hero.
