FAQs

When is Easter 2024?

This year Easter Sunday falls on March 31, with Good Friday being March 29 and Easter Monday taking place on April 1. Good Friday and Easter Monday are UK bank holidays so we end up with a four-day weekend to mark the occasion.

Is Tesco shut on Easter Sunday 2024?

While Tesco hasn't yet announced its opening hours for the Easter bank holiday weekend, its larger stores will be shut on Easter Sunday. This is due to trading hour laws set by the Government that state that shops over 280 square metres must close on Easter Sunday. This rule will apply to Tesco's larger Extra stores, but you may find that your nearest Tesco Express or Metro store is open if it's under 280 square metres. However, they may operate at reduced hours over the bank holiday period. Check Tesco's store locator to see the opening hours for a store near you before you head out.
