Memorial Day 2025: What's open and closed including banks, post offices and retail stores
Share this @internewscast.com

Memorial Day is often considered the unofficial start of summer. This year, the holiday falls on Monday, May 26.

As you plan for Memorial Day, it’s important to be aware of which stores and businesses will be open or closed. While many retail and grocery outlets will welcome customers (some even featuring special holiday promotions), most corporate offices, government entities, and banks will not be operational on Monday in observance of the federal holiday.

What’s open and closed on Memorial Day 2025:

Banks

Memorial Day is a bank holiday in the Federal Reserve system, so most bank branches will be closed.

Online banking and ATMs will still be accessible. The stock market will also be closed.

Post offices and shipping services

The United States Post Service will also observe Memorial Day and not deliver letters or packages on May 26. USPS locations will also be closed.

If your plans include shipping a package via UPS on Memorial Day, you should know that the service will not conduct any pickups or deliveries, and numerous UPS Store locations will also not be open.

For FedEx, only Fedex Custom Critical delivery will be available on Memorial Day. FedEx Office stores will have modified hours.

Government agencies and schools

Nonessential government offices, including the DMV, libraries, courthouses, and city hall, will remain closed on Monday. Federal and state courts also won’t be in session, and the majority of public school districts will observe the holiday by closing as well.

Retail

Many stores and restaurants will be open Monday, including big box retailers such as Walmart, Target and Kmart. One notable exception is Costco, which will be closed on May 26.

Grocery stores like Kroger, Aldi, H-E-B, Trader Joe’s, Publix and Whole Foods will be open this Memorial Day, although it’s a good idea to call and check your local store’s hours of operation.
