Brands such as Breville, Morphy Richards, Bosch, Cata and Samsung will all be available in special four-day deals during the five weeks.
B&Q commercial and marketing director John Colley said; "With the festive season fast approaching, we want to make it even more affordable for shoppers to get the best DIY gifts for friends and family. We've expanded the number of products on offer this year to make this our biggest ever power tools and hand tools offer."
During the five-week event, there will also be offers on car accessories, pressure washers and appliances.
