Walgreens® is a popular stop for prescriptions, health essentials, last-minute gifts and household items. If you’re planning errands around the holiday, knowing Walgreens’ Christmas hours can help you avoid any surprises.

Here’s what to expect for Walgreens’ 2026 holiday closures and hours.

Walgreens 2026 Holiday Schedule

Walgreens is open for most major holidays in 2026, although store and pharmacy hours may be reduced:

Walgreens operates nearly 9,000 stores across the U.S., including many that run extended hours or operate 24/7.

What If You Need To Shop When Walgreens Is Closed?

Although Walgreens rarely closes completely, store hours may be shorter on Christmas Day, and pharmacy services may be limited. You still have options:

• Shop select items through Walgreens.com
• Use photo services online to place same-day pickup orders once stores reopen
• Check store inventory online before visiting
• Call ahead to confirm pharmacy hours

Example: Even if a store is open on Christmas, its pharmacy might be closed, so verifying ahead of time is the best way to avoid delays.

Local Store Hours May Vary

Because Walgreens includes:

• 24-hour stores
• Standalone pharmacies
• Locations inside shopping centers

Christmas hours can differ significantly from one store to the next.

Use the Walgreens Store Locator or app for exact hours for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Walgreens Regular Business Hours

Most Walgreens locations follow this general schedule outside the holidays:

Pharmacies commonly follow slightly shorter hours than the retail store. Demand for pharmacy services can be high before holidays, so earlier visits often mean shorter wait times.

How To Contact Walgreens

If you need help during the holiday:

• Phone: 1-800-WALGREENS (1-800-925-4733)
• Website: walgreens.com
• Mobile App: For prescriptions, pickup orders and store hours
• Store Locator: For updated holiday schedules

Final Tips for Holday Shopping at Walgreens

• Confirm pharmacy availability: Pharmacy hours differ from store hours on Christmas.
• Shop early on Christmas Eve: Stores can get busy with last-minute shoppers.
• Use the Walgreens app: It helps verify store hours and manage prescriptions.
• Expect reduced hours on Christmas Day: Hours vary widely, especially in suburban and rural locations.
• Take advantage of 24-hour stores: These locations may be your best backup for urgent needs.

Example: Many 24-hour Walgreens stores maintain full retail access on holidays like Christmas, but run the pharmacy on a reduced schedule.
