Shoppers across the UK are already planning for the August Bank Holiday weekend in 2025, and knowing your local supermarket's opening hours is key to a stress-free break. Morrisons, one of the nation's favourite grocery chains, has confirmed its trading schedule for the long weekend.
When Is The August Bank Holiday 2025?
The August Bank Holiday falls on Monday, 25th August 2025. This provides a welcome three-day weekend for millions of people throughout England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. It's important to note that Scotland has a different holiday schedule and does not observe the August Bank Holiday on this date.
Morrisons Opening Hours For August Bank Holiday Monday 2025
On the Bank Holiday Monday itself, most Morrisons stores in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland will operate on reduced Sunday trading hours. This typically means stores will be open from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but we strongly advise checking your local store's specific times using the Morrisons store finder online, as there can be regional variations.
Will Morrisons Petrol Stations Be Open?
Yes, good news for motorists. Morrisons petrol stations are expected to follow the same opening hours as the main stores. Therefore, you should be able to fill up your tank between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM on Bank Holiday Monday. Again, checking ahead for your local forecourt is always a sensible precaution.
What About Scotland?
For customers in Scotland, it will be business as usual. Since the August Bank Holiday is not observed there, Morrisons stores will follow their standard Monday opening hours, which are often from early in the morning until late in the evening.
Plan Your Shop Ahead Of The Holiday
Bank Holidays are notoriously busy for supermarkets. To avoid the crowds and ensure you get everything you need for your barbecue or family gathering, consider shopping earlier in the weekend. Sunday trading hours will also be in effect on 24th August 2025, so planning ahead is highly recommended.
