Walmart and Other Major Retailers Open on Memorial Day 2026, Offering Holiday Deals
On Memorial Day 2026, which falls on May 25, most major retailers in the United States, including Walmart, will remain open, operating on their usual business hours. This federal holiday, dedicated to honoring U.S. military personnel who died in service, sees a mix of store openings, closures, and reduced hours. While Walmart, Target, and Home Depot will be open, Costco will be closed nationwide. Other stores like Aldi and Kroger will also be open, though Aldi will operate on reduced hours. Pharmacies such as Publix and Walgreens will be open, but some pharmacy counters may have limited hours. Liquor store hours will vary by state due to differing alcohol regulations.
