Is Publix Open on Labor Day 2025?

If a trip to Publix is on your list for Labor Day, then you're in luck. Publix will be open on Labor Day. They're also open on Memorial Day and 4th of July, and only closes on Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter, according to their website.

They want to be sure shoppers have access to last-minute ingredients and food for all of their Labor Day festivities. Whether you're grabbing everything to make hot dogs, burgers or barbeque on the grill, potato or pasta salad from the deli or ingredients to make your own or a juicy watermelon to serve as dessert, Publix has it all.

What are Publix's Labor Day Hours?

According to Publix, most of their stores will operate with standard hours. We reached out to them and Publix confirmed their Labor Day hours are the 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

"Holiday hours of operation will be posted in stores with adequate notice. We value our associates and want to provide them time around the holidays to spend with their loved ones. We hope you understand!", said a Publix representative.

Publix also confirmed they close early on Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, but not on Memorial Day, 4th of July or Labor Day; their hours remain the same on those days.

If you want to double check before heading there, you can check for your specific location and store hours information listed on their website's store locator.

While we are trying to plan ahead for the weekend, sometimes (okay, most of the time), we need to make that last-minute stop, and we're glad we can.
