If you’re still looking for your first instrument, this is your chance to find the right digital piano at the lowest possible cost. Here are our recommendations for the best Black Friday deals on digital pianos, portable pianos, piano keyboards, acoustic pianos, and piano software.
Black Friday digital piano deals are available only once a year – on the Friday after Thanksgiving, which always falls on the fourth Thursday of November.
The Black Friday tradition originated in the U.S. business world. Following the Thanksgiving holiday, many Americans use this day to kick off a long weekend and traditionally start their Christmas shopping.
By now, the bargain hunt has become a global shopping event that spans several industries. Electronics are especially in demand, including digital pianos, synthesizers, stage pianos, and software instruments. A musical instrument for Christmas is always a thoughtful gift – and that hasn’t changed in the cyber world of online retail.

What features should you look for in an entry-level digital piano? How much should you spend to learn to play the piano? Is a digital piano suitable for beginners? The Buyer’s Guide articles on PIANOO.com provide answers to these questions. In addition, our comprehensive digital piano review gives you a good overview and summarizes the best digital pianos from different market segments (portable piano, home piano, etc.).
Beginners looking for an affordable digital piano shouldn’t compromise on sound or keyboard quality. A good instrument motivates you to play, which is essential when starting out. However, there are ways to save money if you’re open to different designs. Classic home piano designs are generally more expensive than comparable portable pianos, which are ideal for beginners. By reducing cabinet size, these portable pianos prioritize essential features like keyboard and sound quality.
However, be cautious with some of the very cheap portable pianos on the market, as many require additional accessories sold separately. For absolute beginners, it’s worth considering affordable bundle offers that include essentials like a keyboard stand, headphones, and a piano bench. Some manufacturers may cut costs by including a simple footswitch as a sustain pedal. While it’s technically functional, you should plan to invest in a better sustain pedal at the time of your purchase.
