What’s open and closed on the 2024 Easter long weekend

Good Friday is a statutory holiday across Canada, so all government offices and services, malls and big box stores, and beer and liquor stores are closed. Almost all grocery stores are also closed, while most drug stores remain open. On Easter Sunday, most drug stores and a few grocery stores are open, while almost everything else is closed. On Easter Monday, some government offices and services remain closed, but all beer stores, grocery stores, and malls and big box stores resume normal hours, and a few liquor stores are open in larger communities.

For your convenience, we provide this list of holiday hours for 288 selected businesses, services, and organizations across the Kawarthas. This information comes from their websites and social media accounts, which may or may not be up to date, so please always call them first to confirm their hours (we’ve included phone numbers), especially where you see “call to confirm” (which means the business did not indicate specific holiday hours) or if you are travelling any distance.

If your business or organization is listed and the hours are incorrect, please let us know by using our content feedback form. We do not have the hours for restaurants in this list as there are far too many to include.

Note: Holiday hours for Foodland grocery stores have been corrected based on updated from the Foodland website.
