Easter Sunday 2025 supermarket opening times for Aldi, Asda, Tesco, Morrisons, Lidl and more

Supermarket opening and closing hours for Easter Sunday and Easter Monday

Easter Sunday has arrived and as millions of people enjoy an extended four-day break many will be wondering if supermarkets are open on Easter Sunday.

The day will also see supermarkets making changes to their opening times, with many closing or operating on reduced hours over the weekend.

So whether you are looking to do your big weekly shop or just popping to get some last minute Easter treats, it is best to check when the supermarkets will be open over the weekend.

There are specific laws in place which limit certain retailers from being able to open on Easter Sunday. These rules are similar to the trading restrictions which shoppers will see on Christmas Day.

In England and Wales, large shops that are over 280 square metres must close by law on Easter Sunday, although exemptions apply to certain stores, including shops in airports and railway stations. Small shops which are up to 280 square metres can trade on any day and at any hour.
