Black Friday store hours 2025: Here's what time Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Apple, Costco and more retailers open their doors
Here's when you'll be able to bust through those doors post-Thanksgiving to be the first to jump on Black Friday sales.
You know the drill: Thanksgiving is Thursday, and then the Black Friday madness officially kick off. OK, that's not exactly true: The Black Friday deals are already hot and heavy online, but if you want some old-school "camp outside starting at 4 a.m. and then hit the first wave of doorbusters" IRL shopping action, we have the info you're looking for: Black Friday store hours for real-world, brick and mortar stores.
Below, we've compiled a list of Black Friday hours for some of our readers' favorite stores. More deals are available online than in years past, and retailers such as Walmart, Target and Best Buy have been rolling out deals the entire month of November. But as we noted, some stores continue to have in-person-only markdowns, so check the fine print in those old-school newspaper circulars and TV ads. (Not interested in standing in line? Shop these Amazon Black Friday deals instead.)

Some retailers have already confirmed their Black Friday store hours, while others have yet to announce what time they'll let customers in — those are marked TBA, and we've noted what time they opened last year in parentheses. We expect that many will be keeping the same schedules. Please note that hours can vary by location, so we recommend calling any stores you plan to visit in advance.
