Target surprisingly closes its stores for the fifth time in a row: these are the closing and opening hours for Thanksgiving and Black Friday

Target has announced special hours for Black Friday and extended holiday shopping hours in the run-up to Christmas. Here’s a look.

Special holiday hours at Target

Thanksgiving is almost upon us and with it the start of the mad dash to Christmas. Every year the holiday shopping frenzy kicks off with Black Friday, where consumers can binge on special deals after they’ve gorged themselves on turkey, fixings and dessert.

Many stores in the 2010s had been moving toward opening their doors earlier and earlier on Thanksgiving. This was in order to let shoppers begin their Black Friday shopping before the feast had fully settled and cash in at the same time.

However, that trend has now reversed since 2020 when the pandemic upset life as we knew it. Most of them like Target have chosen to stay closed on Thanksgiving since to provide their workers with the opportunity to spend time with family and friends. Customers can still shop on Thanksgiving, but they’ll have to do so online or using the retailer’s app.

As mentioned, Target will be closed for Thanksgiving, a policy that was made permanent in 2021 after hearing from team members about their appreciation for being able to spend time with their families on the holiday the previous year. If you have any last-minute shopping to do, the Minneapolis-based retailer will be open during normal business hours the day before, Wednesday, November 27.

Black Friday will kick off early at most Target stores with doors opening at 6am on November 29. Any purchases made online or through the app on Thanksgiving Day can be picked up that day.

Target customers will also be able to get a look at behind-the-scenes look at Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour with ‘Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour Book’ which will be available exclusively at Target starting November 29, 2024.

Customers will be limited to four per item of the 256-page hardcover book, which includes over 500 images, as well as never-before-seen photos and reflections from Taylor, as well as ‘The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology’ on vinyl and CD. They will be available in the online store and app starting Saturday and until supplies last.
