Merry Christmas! While you’re celebrating the holiday, you may be looking for some last-minute gifts for family and friends, or you may need to stock up on supplies at a Dollar Store near you. Are Dollar Stores open on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, including Dollar General, Family Dollar, and Dollar Tree? The answer varies depending on the store.


Dollar Tree on Christmas Eve & Day 2021

Although Dollar Tree locations have sometimes been open on Christmas in the past, that’s not the case this year. This year, stores will be closed on Christmas, and open for varying hours on Christmas Eve.

A representative told Heavy about Christmas Eve hours: “The hours will vary depending on the location. Stores that are open will typically operate abbreviated hours in order to accommodate our customers shopping for their last-minute needs.”

A representative also told Heavy that on Christmas, all stores will be closed.

Since local hours can vary on Christmas Eve, you should check with your local Dollar Tree to make sure it’s open before you go for a visit. Find your nearest store’s holiday hours and more information here.
