Morrisons New Year's Day 2021 opening times - when UK shops will open and close?

Burned through all your canapés, mince pies and chocolates over Christmas and Boxing Day? If you need to make a quick dash to your local Morrisons store to stock up ahead of the New Year, it's advisable you check timings first.

Morrisons previously extended opening hours over the festive period, keeping select branches open until midnight. Over New Year's Day Morrisons stores will be operating different opening hours from normal, so shoppers should check online at groceries.morrisons.com to find out exact timings.

For shoppers who are shielding the chain is offering plenty of online options too, with click and collect services available direct and with delivery partners Amazon and Deliveroo.

Morrisons New Year opening times

  • 1 January - Most stores open between 9am and 6pm.
  •  
  • 2 January - normal opening times

As many areas in the UK are now under strict Tier 4 Covid-19 restrictions, Morrisons stores will continue to have a number of social distancing measures in place to keep customers and staff safe. The retailer will also continue to operate priority shopping time for NHS staff.

All Emergency Services, Care Workers and Armed Forces who hold a Blue Light Card will also be able to get a 10% discount on their shopping in stores nationwide. This is in addition to the 10% discount already offered to NHS and School Staff across the country.

Speaking about the discount, David Potts, Morrisons Chief Executive said: “Our emergency services, social care sector and armed forces have worked tirelessly this year to provide support to the many people who need it across the UK, often in exceptionally difficult circumstances. This discount is a thank you for all that they have done and continue to do for us all.”
