midnight sale

Nocturnal retail event

A midnight sale is a retail event that begins at or around midnight, typically marking the release of highly anticipated products like video games, books, or electronics.

Stores stay open late to let eager customers be among the first to purchase: We waited in line for the midnight sale of the new iPhone.

The timing builds excitement and creates a sense of event around the purchase.
