About Seasonal Events
Seasonal Events covers the Gulf's high-intensity shopping moments — Ramadan and Eid, White Friday, the national days, and the broader GCC sale calendar.
It matters because these windows carry a disproportionate share of annual demand and the deepest, most reliable savings; planning around them is the single most useful thing a shopper can do.
Waxyon researches seasonality from the GCC Shopping Calendar and observed platform activity, with timing described as guidance — lunar events shift each year.

How we research this topic
Seasonal reports map demand and savings intensity across the year from calendar context and daily verification. Curves are indexed; lunar dates are treated as guidance, not fixed.
Seasonal Events — FAQ
Which events are covered?
White Friday, Ramadan and Eid, the Saudi and UAE national days, Singles' Day, back-to-school, and the year-end window — mapped in the GCC Shopping Calendar.
Why do dates change each year?
Ramadan and Eid follow the lunar calendar and move roughly eleven days earlier each Gregorian year, so month placements are directional guidance.
Are the intensity charts real volumes?
No — they are indexed and directional, showing the relative shape of each window rather than absolute figures.
