Aldi opening times for King Charles III Coronation: See when your local store will open

King Charles III will be officially crowned as King later this week and an additional bank holiday has been introduced to celebrate - this means supermarkets will be adjusting their opening times.

The King's Coronation is on Saturday, May 6 and the bank holiday will be the following Monday.

The majority of supermarkets will be open as normal on the actual day of the Coronation but will be adjusting their opening hours on the bank holiday Monday - this is what is happening at Aldi.

Aldi has more than 990 stores and you can use its online store finder tool to locate your nearest branch by entering your postcode.

The discount supermarket chain does ask shoppers to double check before heading to their local Aldi as the opening times for some stores may vary.

Aldi opening times over King Charles III Coronation weekend

Aldi has announced that its normal opening hours will remain over the Coronation weekend.

This means on Saturday (May 6) its stores will be opening at 8am and closing at 10pm.

On Sunday (May 7), Aldi stores are typically open from 10am until 4pm, or 11am until 5pm, in England and Wales as under trading laws some shops are only allowed to be open for six hours.

Trading hours are different in Scotland, where most Aldi stores open 9am until 8pm on Sundays.

On the Coronation bank holiday Monday (May 8) Aldi stores in England and Wales will close slightly earlier than usual.

Sites in England and Wales will be opening as usual at 8am but will be closing at 8pm rather than 10pm.

Aldi sites in Scotland will open until 10pm as usual.

The discount German supermarket has recently asked shoppers to help them find new sites to build new Aldi stores.

Aldi is looking for freehold town centre or edge-of-town sites that are around 1.5 acres and can accommodate a 20,000 square foot store with around 100 parking spaces.

Ideally, each location would be near a main road with good visibility and access, with priority locations listed below.

As an incentive to help, Adi is offering a finders fee for agents who recommend a site - this will either be 1.5% of a freehold price or 10% of the first year’s rent for leasehold sites.

If you know of a site then you should contact: info.nationalproperty@aldi.co.uk.
