Wickes will be open on New Year’s Eve in England and Wales until 4pm.

The chain will then open its doors again on New Years day on Sunday trading hours which allows the store to be open for only six hours.

The retailer will be closed in Scotland on New Year’s Day.

Stores will be open as usual on Monday, January 2, 2023, in England and Wales but as it is a bank holiday, it will close an hour earlier at 7pm.

Stores in Scotland will be open from 10am until 4pm.

Are shops closed on the Bank Holiday?

The majority of retailers have confirmed the days people will be able to shop in their stores over the Christmas period.

Most shops and supermarkets will be closed for certain days in order to give staff some much-needed time off.

Almost all stores across the UK are shut on Christmas Day, but there are also a handful of retailers that won’t open on Boxing Day either.

Opening hours can vary from branch to branch, so check your local store times before you make the trip.

Most big retailers will have their opening times listed on their websites.
