Out of all the ways Americans choose to celebrate Easter, having a family meal is the most popular, even more so than egg hunts and watching television programs. This means a grocery store run before the big day will be necessary, and the more than 120 million Costco members may wonder if there are special hours for Easter Sunday 2023.

According to the Costco Wholesale website, the popular wholesaler will be closed on Easter Sunday, April 9, 2023. Fortunately for those hoping to make a special grocery trip before the holiday weekend, Costco will be open on Good Friday, with modified business hours of 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

To avoid the crowds, try and get to Costco between Tuesday and Thursday of that week in the early afternoon, before the after-work rush. If you must go on either Friday or Saturday, get there early in the morning — when the store will be fully stocked — and be sure to have an itemized shopping list for efficiency.
