No. Costco is closed on Easter Sunday at every warehouse in the United States. This one surprises people more than any other closure, because Easter is not a federal holiday and most big retailers treat it as a normal, if quieter, Sunday. Costco closes completely anyway.
Hours over Easter weekend
| Date | Status |
|---|---|
| Good Friday | Open, normal hours |
| Holy Saturday | Open, normal Saturday hours, very busy |
| Easter Sunday | Closed all day |
| Easter Monday | Open, normal hours |
Why does Costco close for Easter?
Same reason it closes for the other six: staffing philosophy. Costco pays above the retail average and holds onto employees for years, and guaranteed holidays are part of that bargain. Easter made the list early in the company’s history and has stayed on it, federal holiday or not.
The Saturday crunch
Because Sunday is dark, everything Easter-related compresses into Saturday. Hams, lamb, eggs, dessert trays and flowers all peak at once, and Saturday already runs shorter hours than a weekday, 9:30 AM to 7:00 PM. Good Friday is the smarter day for the full shop. Saturday morning at opening works for fresh items, but by early afternoon the specific things you came for may be gone.
