New Year’s Eve is often a time of celebration, as it’s common to have gatherings to welcome the arrival of the New Year. However, some people may need to get a little shopping done. Whether you’re getting items for a New Year’s Eve party or simply need to restock on groceries, you might be wondering, “Is Costco closed on New Year’s Eve 2025?” If so, here’s everything you need to know.

If you were planning on shopping near closing time on New Year’s Eve, you’ll want to check your preferred Costco location’s schedule in advance. That way, you’ll know if you need to head to Costco earlier than originally planned to ensure you can get what you need on December 31.

Does Costco Have a New Year’s Eve Sale?

Costco 2026 Holiday Schedule
Costco stores close for holidays more often than many other major retailers. That’s a reflection of Costco’s employee- and family-centric approach to business. The corporate office sets the holiday schedule, which applies to all warehouse locations.
