IRELAND: Your local supermarket opening hours have changed this weekend due to the August bank holiday

IRELAND: The August bank holiday weekend is fast approaching which will bring a number of changes to opening hours across most businesses.

Whatever your plans are, whether its a family BBQ or a few drinks with friends, it's likely that you will need to make a trip to the supermarket. Before you get caught out, you should check if there is a change to the opening hours of your local shop this weekend.

The location of a supermarket affects whether or not it closes early on the weekends. On the bank holiday Monday, some locations will simply keep Sunday hours while others may undergo significant adjustments.

The following are the hours that Irish supermarkets will be open on the bank holiday in August:

Tesco

Tesco's hours of operation vary depending on the particular store. Bank holiday hours are typically the same as a typical Monday.

For instance, Tesco Phibsborough, Co. Dublin is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday, and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on the Monday after a holiday. Check what times your local Tesco will open using their locator here.
