The Platinum Jubilee bank holiday is just days away. People across the UK will be enjoying street parties, watching the Trooping of the Colour, and making the most of four days off work.
But as a special long bank holiday weekend, the Platinum Jubilee celebrations may disrupt everyday life, like public transport schedules and business opening times.
While celebrations are ongoing, people will still have to do weekly chores, like putting the bins out or doing the weekly food shop.
So whether you’ll be shopping for street party essentials, or just need to grab a last-minute ingredient for your Platinum Jubilee pudding, find out below when supermarkets will be open.
