Is Walmart open Christmas Eve and Day 2022? What are the holiday hours?

Is Walmart open or closed on Christmas Day and Christmas Eve 2022? What are the holiday hours for Walmart in 2022?

Walmart stores are closed on Christmas Day. They are generally operating with reduced hours, closing between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., on Christmas Eve.

Heavy contacted Walmart public relations to ask: Is Walmart open or closed on Christmas Day 2022? This was the response:

“Thank you for reaching out! Walmart store hours are as follows: All Walmart stores will be closed on Christmas Day.”

Find the Walmart store locator here. This allows you to look up a specific Walmart near you. You can search by zip code. The hours that each Walmart store are open are typically listed at that website. It’s always a good idea to check individual store locations because sometimes hours can vary, however. Furthermore, Heavy discovered by calling Walmart stores that many are closed early on Christmas Eve – earlier than the store locator indicates – so the website appears to reflect typical hours, not holiday hours.

The stores that Heavy called close at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve 2022 and are closed on Christmas Day 2022. Indeed, Axios reports that most Walmart stores close at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve. AI.com reports that some locations may close at 8 p.m. on Christmas Eve, though. That’s why it’s important to call the phone numbers through the store locator. Either way, Walmart stores throughout the country are operating on reduced hours for Christmas Eve.

Walmart stores are closed on Christmas Day, Axios also reported.
