Memorial Day 2026 is on Monday, May 25, marking the earliest date possible for the holiday in years. While it's an official federal holiday, most businesses and restaurants remain open.
However, banks, libraries, government entities, the U.S. Postal Service, UPS, FedEx, and Amazon will be closed. Costco and Raising Cane's will also remain shut.
On the other hand, several retailers have confirmed they will be open for Memorial Day, including Ace Hardware, Aldi, Best Buy, and many more. Most restaurant chains will also be open, except for Raising Cane's.
Gas stations and convenience stores will operate on their usual hours. The next major holiday that could impact store and restaurant hours is July 4.
