Will Costco be open for Thanksgiving 2025?

You thought you had everything ready to go for Thanksgiving dinner. The day has arrived. The meal is ready. People start showing up at your door. Then you suddenly remember that you forgot something important. Where can you go to buy last-minute items for Thanksgiving? So, will Costco be open for Thanksgiving 2025?
So, what’s the answer? Is Costco open on Thanksgiving?
Won’t. Costco warehouses nationwide will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 2025. The closures are part of Costco’s long-standing policy of celebrating seven major holidays each year, including Thanksgiving, New Year’s Day, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day and Christmas.
During the period when physical stores are closed, Costco.com Will remain open and offer online-only promotions. These digital deals often include limited-time discounts during Thanksgiving and last through the Black Friday weekend.
When will Costco reopen after Thanksgiving?


Costco will reopen on Friday, November 28, 2025, with regular operating hours. This day also marks the start of the Black Friday weekend, although Costco generally avoids labeling its sales as “Black Friday sales.” Instead, members can take advantage of holiday deals online and in-store throughout November and December.
Costco seasonal sales in 2025
- Early November sales: Costco traditionally launches early season sales in the first half of November.

If you need last minute shopping, there are other options
With Costco closed, shoppers can turn to:
- Grocery chains such as Kroger, ShopRite and Whole Foods (limited hours).
- Convenience stores and gas stations are usually open all day.
- Other retailers such as Dollar General, Big Lot and Walgreens typically have reduced hours during Thanksgiving.
Costco’s Thanksgiving 2025 closure reflects its commitment to providing employees with the holiday and maintaining consistency at its U.S. warehouses. For shoppers, this means if you want to shop during the holidays, plan ahead for essentials and rely on Costco.com’s online deals. Ultimately, Costco’s stance reinforces the idea that Thanksgiving is best spent enjoying food, family and being thankful rather than rushing through crowded aisles.
