Tesco opening times for the coronation bank holiday Monday

With the King’s coronation fast approaching, many people will be frantically getting their last minute bits together.

Whether you’re having a big party at home or attending a street party, you’ll want lots of festive bits to celebrate the historic day.

From Pimm’s coronation party packs to coronation themed bingo games, there’s plenty of coronation buys that’ll make a perfect party.

But it’s very possible that you’ll find you’ve forgotten something on the weekend – from the bare essentials to the crowning glory of your plans.

Will Tesco stores be open on the Bank Holiday – which is one extra day than we usually get -if you need to pop out?

What are the opening hours for Tesco on Bank Holiday Monday?

Tesco stores across the coronation weekend will be open, including on the day of the coronation itself (Saturday, May 6).

On the Monday (May 8), normal bank holiday rules will apply. This means that most of the larger stores will close earlier than usual – usually open between 8am and 8pm, with some closing as early as 6pm.

Tesco Express stores, however, should be open as usual, with regular hours running between 7am and 11pm depending on location.  

Rules will differ store to store so the advice is to always check your local hours using Tesco’s store locator before setting off.
