Asda, Tesco, Aldi, Sainsbury's, Lidl and Morrisons' opening times for Bank Holiday

August Bank Holiday has finally arrived and it's set to be a warm, mostly dry weekend across the country.

Many will have a relaxed few days in store, with plans to enjoy the weather and spend as much time as possible outside. Others might be planning on spending quality time catching up with friends and family, while for some it might be another working day.

Regardless of your plans, it's worth bearing in mind that most shops alter their opening hours during bank holidays. It can be easy to forget, but not something you want to be caught out by - especially while buying the last-minute grub for your family barbecue.

Most major supermarkets make changes to their opening hours, including the likes of Asda, Tesco, Aldi, Morrisons and Sainsbury's. Here are all of the changes to opening times at the major UK supermarkets for this August Bank Holiday.
