Sainsbury's has confirmed that it will be closing stores on Easter Sunday this year, which falls on April 9. However branches will be open on Good Friday, Easter Saturday and Easter Monday.
As somewhat of a guide, supermarkets will likely be open between the hours of 6am and 11pm on Good Friday and Easter Saturday, and 7am to 10pm on Easter Monday, however these times can change depending on the type and location of stores. Fortunately, Sainsbury's website boasts a store locator which can help prospective shoppers find out their nearest shop's opening hours before they head out.
To use the store locator on the retail giant's website, simply enter the name or location of your local Sainsbury's into the text box and click the magnifying glass icon to search. You can also press the button beneath the text box to search using your current location, if you have set this up on your device.
