Bath & Body Works Announces Annual Candle Day Deal

Candle Day offers the lowest price of the season on 3-wick candles, including more than 50 Candle Day exclusives and six new-to-the-brand fragrances dropping for the event. During Candle Day, all 3-wick candles will be priced at $9.95 (retail value: $24.95–$26.95) — the lowest price of the season, while supplies last.

To celebrate the highly-anticipated event, Bath & Body Works is hosting a "run up" to Candle Day with a spectacle that only America's most-loved candle brand—and America's most-decorated athletes—can deliver. On Dec. 5, Candle Day Eve, gold medalist power couple Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall and gold medalist Jordan Chiles will host a fun run and pass the torch through the streets of Manhattan, from the New York Stock Exchange to New York City's Hudson Yards, to light a giant 3-wick candle to kick off the countdown to Candle Day. 

"Millions of our customers celebrate Candle Day by making it part of their annual holiday tradition," said Chief Customer Officer Maurice Cooper. "This year, we're excited to engage customers in new and exciting ways with our very first Candle Fest, a spectacular Candle Torch Run featuring superstar athletes and a giant candle countdown clock to make this year more memorable than ever. Candle Day is one of our customers' favorite events of the year, and we're inviting fans nationwide to share their own Candle Day traditions and join in the countdown excitement on social media."

THE RUN UP TO CANDLE DAY
The celebration begins Dec. 5 with Bath & Body Works CEO Gina Boswell ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange. Immediately following, Tara Davis-Woodhall and Hunter Woodhall, along with Jordan Chiles, will commence a four-mile Candle Torch Run through Manhattan, culminating at Hudson Yards, where they will "light" the three wicks of a giant Bath & Body Works candle to spark a countdown to Candle Day. The 3-wick LED candle, standing 12 feet high, at 9 feet in diameter and accompanied with a 12-foot matchstick to "light" it, will have a dynamic, animated label that switches between some of Bath & Body Works' most iconic holiday candle fragrances, including Fresh Balsam, 'Tis the Season and Winter Candy Apple, which is also celebrating its 25^th anniversary this year.

Bath & Body Works fans can also join the festivities at "Candle Fest," a consumer celebration from 6-8 p.m. in Hudson Yards' Main Plaza. Hosted by DJ Kyle Cooke, Candle Fest will feature Winter Candy Apple themed beverages, a sampling of PocketBac hand sanitizers and photo ops at the giant countdown candle.

The Candle Day countdown will extend to various digital billboards throughout the city to serve as a persistent reminder that the event is on its way. These are in addition to the brand's innovative new scented billboard experience, which launched Nov. 19 at 433 Broadway between Grand and Canal Streets and features holiday graphics, paired with some of Bath & Body Works' most iconic scents.

This year's installation promises to light up the senses and spirits of Bath & Body Works candle fans as it counts down to the official start of Candle Day at 6 a.m. EST on Dec. 6.
