[UPDATE (Nov. 2024) – Check out Adobe’s new 2024 Black Friday & Cyber Monday Deals!]
Yes, it’s that time of year again. Adobe is having a worldwide sale with money-saving deals lined up through Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2020 (and beyond), and we’ve got the complete guide below… There are some exceptional offers for major products in this “season of savings” – with discounts as much as 74% off the regular prices!
The company is running four major promotions for the all-new Creative Cloud 2021 collection of tools and services. The holiday deals will run continuously until Thursday, December 3rd (extended!) at 11:59pm Pacific Time. So don’t miss out, as these values only come once per year!
The four big offers are:
— Creative Cloud 20-25% Off: Normally US$52.99/month for new customers signing up for an annual plan, now the complete Adobe CC membership (All Apps) is available at a special discounted rate of $39.99/month – or £39.95/€47,99/A$58.29 including VAT – for one year. No previous software ownership or other qualifications are necessary to receive this price reduction.
— CC All Apps + Adobe Stock: 16% Off. To go one better, you can save $13/month on the best package available, Creative Cloud ‘All Apps’ together with Adobe Stock, with over 560 million assets to choose from. Normally $82.98/month, this entire package is now available at a special reduced rate of $69.98 a month (or £63.94/€83,98/A$97.88 incl. VAT) for your first year.
— CC Student & Teacher Edition 70%-74% Off: Normally $29.99/month with a first-year price of $19.99/month, the All Apps bundle is now offered at a further-discounted rate of $15.99 a month – or £13.15/€15,60/A$21.99 incl. VAT – for one year. To get this education price, you must meet eligibility requirements (e.g., having a school-issued email ending in “.edu” or “.k12”).
— Creative Cloud for Teams 14%-26% Off: New customers save $20/£9/€10 per month on your first year. This is Adobe’s solution if you have a group of people or multiple users working together on creative projects, as Creative Cloud for Teams offers significant advantages over the standard CC plan for individuals. The sale applies for both Single-App and All Apps plans.
These four discounted CC offers are available for direct purchases only in over 90 countries. Percents off may vary between regions. But these one-time deals will give you the entire Creative Cloud – all of Adobe’s best desktop tools and services that are included in the just-launched 2021 release, plus ongoing upgrades:
Here’s a quick overview of what the complete Creative Cloud package (‘All Apps’) contains:
- The latest 2021 desktop releases of Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Acrobat, and more

We know this question will be asked, so here it is: If you recently bought CC from Adobe – within the past 14 days – then you may still be able to take advantage of these one-year promotions. That’s because Adobe has an easy Return / Exchange Policy for direct purchases, which allows customers to swap out whatever they bought for a different choice for up to one month after purchase. Recent buyers can just submit online for a full refund and then sign up to get one of the new offers above instead.
Other Adobe deals available for the holiday season can be found on our Coupons page, including the ability to instantly download 1,000,000+ free images or assets from Adobe Stock. And one of the nice things about Creative Cloud is you can always try it out before you buy… So if you want, you can instantly download any application(s) you like for a fully-functional free trial – then just be sure to purchase & activate the software within the savings period to benefit from the discount.
Install now: Get all new Creative Cloud 2025 direct download links and free trials.
A new study forecasts that total online holiday sales will surpass $189 billion this year, a massive increase of 33% from last year – and that Cyber Monday 2020 will set another new record as the largest online shopping day in history. This makes sense given the efficiency and convenience of buying online – you can still get the best prices while saving on gas and time, plus avoid the holiday crowds. With these offers you can shop in peace (and your pajamas if you want to), and not miss a great deal on software. For Black Friday Deals on anything else, well there’s always BlackerFriday…!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Will I get the student discount if I want to buy just a few softwares, not all?
The softwares I want to buy are Photoshop, Illustrator and Animate. I would also like to buy the 2019 versions of After Effects, Premiere Pro, Media Encoder and Lightroom if it is available for considerably cheaper price. I don’t have much money, so I can’t buy the full package.
Also I want to know if I can run different versions of same product side-by-side without conflicts. Thank you.
Hi Shailesh, the answer to your last question is yes! Many people have and run several different CC versions on their computers.
However, when you purchase a plan, you don’t pay a different amount depending on which version you want to use. It’s all the same for Creative Cloud 2021.
But you can still choose to run an older release of various apps if you want or need to. For example, if your computer doesn’t support the most recent release, or if you need to use a prior release for compatibility reasons.
Lastly, if you want more than 2-3 apps, then you cannot find cheaper than getting the “All Apps” plan – which is the package that includes all CC tools and services.
In other words, just like it was with Creative Suite, you get a huge discount by going with the complete bundle rather than trying to combine multiple individual single-app options.
