Amazon US has officially announced its Black Friday 2026 sale, and Christmas trees are one of the headline categories: up to $500 off select artificial Christmas trees from Balsam Hill and Fraser Hill Farm, with early deals already live. Below are the trees with the biggest verified discounts in our database right now — all sold on Amazon US, all in stock as of our last check.
When is Amazon Black Friday 2026?
The Amazon Black Friday sale starts Thursday, November 19, 2026 at 12:01 a.m. PT and runs through Cyber Monday, November 30. Balsam Hill is also featured in Amazon’s “Today’s Big Deals” drops, which run twice on both Black Friday and Cyber Monday — those are limited quantity, so the best prices can sell out fast. Early Black Friday deals are already live now, so if you see a tree you like at a good price, it is worth grabbing before the most popular sizes sell out.
Premium trees: Balsam Hill
Balsam Hill makes the most realistic artificial trees we track, and it is the brand with the deepest Black Friday cuts on Amazon this year. The 4.5 ft Pre-Lit Classic Blue Spruce is the classic entry point; the 7.5 ft and 9 ft sizes suit most living rooms and rooms with high ceilings. One caveat: Balsam Hill says select trees on its own site are at their best price for the season and will not be discounted further for Black Friday — so the Amazon prices below may already be as low as they get.

Real tree vs artificial: what Black Friday actually saves
Almost nobody discounts real trees for Black Friday — Home Depot’s fresh Fraser fir (7–8 ft) runs about $80–$121 depending on location, and its tree lots open on Black Friday itself, November 27. TheStreet estimates a first-year real-tree setup (tree, lights, ornaments and stand) at roughly $167–$214, versus an artificial tree you reuse for years. If you buy artificial, Black Friday week is the cheapest time to do it; if you buy real, the price is roughly the same whenever you go.
How to shop Black Friday tree deals
- Measure first. Check your ceiling height and floor space before you buy — 7 to 7.5 ft is the most popular size, and it needs roughly 8 ft of clearance with a topper.
- Do not wait on the most popular sizes. The best-selling 7 ft and 7.5 ft pre-lit trees can sell out or ship later as December gets closer.
- Check the return window. Many Amazon listings offer extended holiday returns, so check the listing before you buy.
- Check the live price. Prices change often during Black Friday week. The prices on this page were last checked on November 11, 2026 — always confirm the current price on Amazon before you buy.
