Good Friday opening hours: What time is Asda, Tesco, Aldi, Lidl and more open? (2024)

Need to pop into your nearest shop? Supermarkets across the UK have slightly different opening hours over the Easter weekend and Bank Holiday Weekend - here are the details you need to know

With Britain on lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, Easter will be a bit out of the ordinary this year.

All churches will be closed, there will be no egg hunts and people won't be able to visit their extended family and friends.

But Easter celebrations will still be happening indoors across the UK. So if you need to make a trip to your local shop for some supplies over the Easter weekend, it might be worth checking that it's actually open before you head off.

As Good Friday (April 10th) is a national Bank Holiday, supermarkets all over the country will be operating at different opening hours than normal.

We've tracked down the full details of when major UK chains like Aldi, Asda, Tesco and Lidl are open to make things easier.

But it's advisable to double check specific timings on each supermarket's website - as times can vary from store to store.

Several supermarkets are already operating with reduced opening hours in response to the Covid-19 outbreak.
