Memorial Day is just around the corner, falling on Monday, May 26th, 2025. As we take time to honor the brave men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military, many Americans are also planning cookouts, road trips, or even just a relaxing day off. But with the holiday comes changes in store hours and business operations.

So before you head out, let’s break down what’s open and what’s closed on Memorial Day 2025.

Home improvement stores like Home Depot and Lowe’s will also be open, and they're even running special Memorial Day sales on items like grills, outdoor furniture, and gardening supplies. IKEA locations are open as well, making it a good time to stock up on home essentials.

For bargain hunters, stores like Marshalls, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods, Sierra, and Homesense will also be open. Dollar General, Petco, and other specialty retailers are operating under normal or slightly reduced hours.

Now, let’s talk about grocery stores. Publix, a popular Southern chain, will be open on Memorial Day, though many locations may operate with reduced hours. It’s best to check your local store’s schedule online or by phone before you go. Other grocery chains such as ALDI, Kroger, Ralphs, Smith’s, Dillons, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Stop & Shop, Wegmans, Food Lion, and Harris Teeter will also remain open, though some may have shortened hours or closed pharmacy departments.

If you're planning to grab a bite while you're out shopping or traveling, most restaurant chains and fast food locations are open. Starbucks and Dunkin’ will be serving coffee and snacks, while Chipotle, Burger King, Taco Bell, KFC, Arby’s, Sonic, and Domino’s are all ready to take your order. Chick-fil-A, Buffalo Wild Wings, Jimmy John’s, and even dessert stops like Baskin-Robbins are open too. Still, holiday hours can vary by location, especially for franchise-owned stores, so it’s always a good idea to double-check before you head out.

Now, let’s shift to what’s closed.

Costco is once again closing its doors for Memorial Day, following its tradition of observing major holidays. If you're a regular Costco shopper, you’ll need to plan ahead.

Government offices, including post offices, will be closed as well. That means no USPS mail delivery on Monday. UPS will also suspend regular deliveries, although some critical services might still be operating. FedEx generally limits service on Memorial Day too.

Banks will be closed, including both local branches and the Federal Reserve. If you need to handle banking business, make sure to do it by Friday or use ATMs and mobile apps for basic transactions.

The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq will both be closed in observance of the holiday. Courts and public schools will also not be in session.

For those traveling this weekend, keep an eye on the weather. Severe weather has already caused hundreds of flight cancellations and delays across the country. If you have a flight scheduled, be sure to monitor your airline’s updates and plan for possible disruptions.

And of course, with Memorial Day being one of the biggest shopping weekends of the year, expect major sales both online and in stores. Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Macy’s, Home Depot, and Lowe’s are among the retailers offering deep discounts, with savings up to 70 percent on everything from electronics to furniture and apparel.

Thanks for watching, and have a safe and meaningful Memorial Day.
