On Memorial Day, 26 May, Costco's all stores will be closed. Walmart and Target, will have varying hours for in-store shopping on the holiday.

But if you were planning a Costco run on Monday, 26 May, you’ll want to make other plans. The warehouse giant has confirmed it will close all its physical store locations in observance of the national holiday.

Costco's 2025 holiday calendar details that stores are scheduled to close on seven major days: New Year’s Day, Easter Sunday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labour Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

How Americans can still shop at the warehouse giant

While that might disappoint some in-person shoppers, there’s good news for those who prefer to shop from home. “Even though all physical Costco warehouse locations will be closed on Memorial Day, Costco.com will remain fully operational.”

That means you can still browse for essentials, electronics, and take advantage of Memorial Day savings on appliances and other home goods from the comfort of your couch.

If you need to grab something in-store on Memorial Day, other major retailers will be open — though hours may vary.
