Which Stores Are Open and Closed on Christmas and Christmas Eve in 2023?
If you're planning to get any shopping done on Christmas Eve and Christmas day, you might want to consult this helpful list first
'Tis the season for last-minute shopping!
However, you're going to want to be sure all your presents are purchased and wrapped before Dec. 25 because many brick-and-mortar stores are closing their doors on the holiday this year.
While you might not be able to snag an extra toy to put under the tree or pick up that forgotten ham to put on the table on Christmas Day, a wide range of retail and grocery stores will be open on Christmas Eve.
It's important to note, though, that store hours will vary per location. So before you run out to grab that needed item, be sure to check your store's local hours of operations first!
In recent years, it has become more common for stores to grant workers the day off for holidays. In addition to Christmas Day and Christmas Eve, Thanksgiving Day was also a day many retailers chose to give workers a break before the official kickoff of the holiday shopping season — a turn away from the previous trend towards blowout shopping offerings on holidays.
Below is a list of confirmed businesses that will stay closed on Christmas Day and Christmas Eve, in addition to the stores that will remain open on the back-to-back holidays this year.
