● Live — counts down from your device clock, exactly like a Tickvio email timer

The Soldes d'été are France's official summer sales — a regulated, nationwide discount season set by the government. They open on the last Wednesday of June (or the Wednesday before, if the last one falls after the 28th) and run for four weeks, so the start date shifts each year. This countdown always tracks the next opening from your device clock, down to the second.

It's one of the clearest deadlines in French retail — a fixed national start date shoppers plan around. A live countdown timer turns 'the Soldes start soon' into a ticking clock to opening day that updates the moment each subscriber opens. Use the count below to plan your teaser, opening-day and final-markdown sends across the four-week season.

Soldes d'été countdown — questions

When do the Soldes d'été start?

The French summer sales open on the last Wednesday of June — or the previous Wednesday if the last one falls after the 28th — and run for four weeks. The live counter above resolves the exact next opening from today, so it's correct no matter when you're reading this.

How long do the Soldes d'été last?

By law the season runs four weeks from opening day, with markdowns typically deepening in the later weeks. For email, most brands plan an opening-day send, mid-season reminders, and a final-markdown push before the window closes.

Can I add a countdown timer to my Soldes emails?

Yes. Tickvio renders a countdown as a live image that ticks for every open, in every inbox, with no code — paste one URL into Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Shopify Email or any other ESP and each subscriber sees the real time left until the Soldes open.
