Veterans Day honors active and former U.S. service members each year on November 11, the anniversary of the end of World War I.

This year the holiday falls on Monday, giving many office workers and students a long weekend.

Since it is a federal holiday, many government institutions and banks will remain closed. Here’s what’s open and closed on Veterans Day 2024.

Major retailers like Target, Walmart, Kroger and other grocery chains will be open Monday. Costco will also be open.

Veterans can score free gifts and perks at various retailers and restaurants on Monday. For example, veterans and active military can receive a free medium submarine and a drink, and chips or cookies at Firehouse Subs and a free appetizer and drink from a prix fixe menu at California Pizza Kitchen. Texas Roadhouse also offers a free meal to veterans and active military members each year.

Be sure to check the opening hours of local shops and restaurants.

Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Citibank and TD Bank branches will be closed Monday for the holiday.

The Federal Reserve banks will also be closed.

The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq will trade on Veterans Day.

UPS will operate as usual on Veterans Day. FedEx will also be open as usual, with the exception of modified service for FedEx Express and Ground Economy.

USPS will not be shipping or delivering mail on Monday.

Most government institutions – think DMVs and local libraries – treat Monday like a holiday. Be sure to double check to see if your local services are open that day.
