Christmas Day 2023: Here's What's Open and Closed Today

Walmart

Shoppers hoping to by any (very) last-minute presents at Walmart will have to look elsewhere. Walmart stores have historically closed on Christmas Day, a tradition the company will maintain this holiday season, with the company confirming to USA TODAY that all Walmart stores will once again be closed on Dec. 25.

Target

While Target is keeping its doors open on Christmas Eve, with most stores set to be open until 8 p.m. local time on Sunday, Dec. 24, the retailer will be closed on Christmas Day. Similar to Walmart, the decision is not much of a surprise, as Target typically chooses to remain closed on Christmas Day.

Starbucks

Whether you are heading to see family on Christmas Day or starting your trip back home, a coffee pick-me-up thankfully won't be too difficult to come by. Most Starbucks locations will be open on Christmas Day. In a previous statement to Delish regarding their stance on remaining open on Christmas, a spokesperson said, "Starbucks stores are a gathering place for the entire community and customers use our stores to connect over coffee in different ways every day. We are happy to welcome customers on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in select store locations. Store hours vary by location, and stores may occasionally adjust their hours based on business and customer needs."

While it is likely that your local Starbucks location will be open on Dec. 25, it is always a good idea to give them a call to make sure. It is likely that while open, Starbucks stores will be operating on shortened hours due to the holiday, meaning some stores may close early.

Dunkin'

"America runs on Dunkin," and as such, the beloved coffee chain is set to keep most of its locations open on Christmas Day. Similar to Starbucks, though, it is advised you check your nearest location to confirm store hours for the holidays.
