Tesco will be changing its opening times over the festive season. This means your local supermarket store will likely be open at different times compared to when it usually is. It is also important to note that there will be different opening times for the larger and smaller convenience stores.
In the week leading up to Christmas Eve, all Tesco stores will be open and trading under their normal hours. These hours can vary but normally they should open between 6am or 7am and close as late between 10pm and midnight. Tesco's convenience stores open at either 6am or 7am, and close at 10pm or 11pm. Opening times will remain as normal on December 23.
However, on Christmas Eve larger Tesco stores will opening as normal between 6am and 7am but closing earlier at between 6pm and 7pm. Tesco's smaller convenience stores will be open later on Christmas Eve with the majority of stores opening between 6am and 7am and closing at 10pm. All Tesco stores across the country will be closed on Christmas Day.
Boxing Day for the Tesco superstores and Extra sites is a bit of a mixed bag across the country but most will operate under reduced hours. The larger Tesco stores will be trading from 9am until around 6pm. However Extra sites will be open for longer from 9am until 7pm. Some smaller city centre Tesco stores will also stay closed on Boxing Day. All Tesco stores across the UK will be reverting back to their normal trading hours from Wednesday, December 27.
Tesco also offers same-day delivery service called Whoosh and this will be affected over the festive season. According to Tesco's website, Whoosh will be operating as normal until December 23. However, on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day, the service will be reduced - although it has not confirmed by how much.
