Lowe’s Closing All Stores for 24 Hours to Honor Employees on Easter
Hey everyone, here’s something that’s been making the rounds in the news—and if you’re planning a weekend hardware run, you might want to hear this. Lowe’s, the national home improvement giant, has announced that all of its 1,700+ stores and contact centers across the U.S. will be closing for a full 24 hours. This will happen on Easter Sunday, April 20th, and yes, that includes every single location.
Now, don’t panic—this isn’t about financial trouble or a permanent shutdown. This is actually a pretty thoughtful move. According to the company, this closure is a gesture of appreciation for their team members' hard work and dedication throughout the year. Marvin Ellison, Lowe’s chairman and CEO, shared a heartfelt message saying he's proud of the company’s 300,000 associates who go above and beyond to support their communities and deliver top-tier service—not just in the busy spring season, but all year long.

This decision continues a tradition that’s been going strong for four years now, where Lowe’s gives its staff Easter Sunday off to spend time with their families. It’s nice to see a major company putting its people first, especially in a retail world that often runs nonstop. And Lowe’s isn’t alone—other big chains like Target, Costco, Sam’s Club, Best Buy, and Aldi are also closing for the holiday.
If you do find yourself needing a last-minute item on Easter, you still have options. Lowe’s website, Lowes.com, will be up and running for online orders. Or you could swing by Home Depot—they’ll be open for the day.
So, if you were planning on tackling that home improvement project Easter Sunday, maybe just hit pause and enjoy the day like the Lowe’s team will be doing. It’s one day off for them—but it’s a powerful reminder that recognizing and appreciating the people who keep businesses running matters.
