It’s worth checking shopping hours over the weekend and on Bank Holiday Monday itself (on April 3) so you’re not caught out.
Opening times will vary between stores.
Aldi opening times
Aldi is keeping its doors open over the bank holiday, although opening hours have been reduced slightly.
On the Bank Holiday Monday, it will open from 8am and close two hours early at 8pm.
