What Did MasterClass Offer Last Black Friday?
Last year MasterClass ran 50% off the first year of its annual memberships. The examples reported were Standard at about $60 instead of $120, Plus at about $90 instead of $180, and Premium at about $120 instead of $240. The offer ended November 28, 2025, at 11:59 pm PT.
Two conditions mattered. The deal worked only when you bought directly on masterclass.com, not through iOS or Google app-store billing. And the discount covered the first year only, so the membership renews at full price afterward. It was open to new purchases and to gifts, and no stacking with other offers was mentioned.
How To Pick The Right MasterClass Deal
Start with the tier, because the percentage is the same across all three and the dollar saving grows with the plan. Standard suits someone who wants to watch on one device, while Plus and Premium add more simultaneous devices and downloads. Pick the lowest tier that fits how many people will actually watch.
- Buy on the website. Last year's discount did not apply to app-store purchases.
- Check the renewal price. A first-year discount means year two costs double.
- Consider a gift. The offer covered gift purchases, which suits a holiday present.
If you only want a handful of classes, cancel before the renewal date and note it in your calendar.
When Do MasterClass Deals Drop?
Black Friday 2026 lands on Friday, November 27, with Thanksgiving on Thursday, November 26 and Cyber Monday on Monday, November 30. MasterClass has not announced its 2026 offer yet. Last year's sale closed on November 28, so a window that runs through Black Friday weekend is a reasonable expectation, but nothing is confirmed.
While you wait, browse the wider online course deals page for other learning subscriptions.
