Is anything open on Christmas Day 2024? Here are open stores, restaurants and fast-food chains.

Those in search of last-minute gifts or who find that they're missing a Christmas dinner ingredient may be in luck if they're located near one of the few retailers and chains that are open today. Most stores, restaurants and grocery chains are closed on Christmas Day across the U.S.

Unlike Thanksgiving, most stores, restaurants and grocery chains shut their doors on Christmas Day in order to give their employees the day off. Even so, there are some options for people who are in need of basics, with the Sheetz convenience store chain among those that will keep their doors open on Dec. 25.
