Going shopping during the Easter weekend can be such a hassle when the opening hours of all the main supermarkets can vary so much. Whilst Easter Sunday is massively affected by the Bank Holiday, Easter Monday isn’t the same when it comes to rules put in place by officials.

It’s worth noting the Easter Weekend will only affect stores’ opening hours in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

This is because Easter Sunday isn’t considered a Bank Holiday in Scotland therefore all operating hours will remain the same as usual.

However, elsewhere trading hours may be different than normal – so its best checking before heading to the shops this weekend. 

Express.co.uk outlines the opening hours for Tesco, Morrisons and Asda below.

What are Tesco’s opening hours on Easter Monday?

Tesco, being the supermarket chain with the widest variety of stores – Metro, Extra, Superstore, Express and so on – is the best of the bunch when it comes to opening hours over the Easter weekend.

Luckily for Tesco frequenters, all Tesco Extras, Superstores and Metro stores will be open from 8am to 6pm.

In Northern Ireland, Extras & Superstores will be open from 10am to 7pm and in Scotland Extras and Superstores open usual hours.

Extras and Superstores in London are open between 8am and 8pm on Monday, and Tesco Express stores open everywhere as usual for the normal hours.

As well as this, all of the Tesco petrol stations will also open for their usual hours throughout the Easter weekend.

Opening hours may differ from store to store, and Tesco advises double-checking your local Tesco’s opening hours on the store locator here before paying a visit.
