Target Hours: Today’s Open & Close Times, Holiday & Sunday Hours

Target does not run one national schedule. Of 36 stores in 20 states that we checked on October 13, 2026, the most common pattern was 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM every day, but about a quarter closed at 11 PM and a few opened at 7 AM or closed an hour earlier on Sunday. The CVS pharmacy, Starbucks and Target Optical each keep shorter hours of their own, and Target closes completely on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and Easter Sunday.

Target Hours Today: What Time Does Target Open and Close?

Target sets hours store by store. We read the live store data behind target.com for 36 stores spread over 20 states on October 13, 2026, and counted how many used each weekly pattern.

Weekly general-merchandise hours across the 36 stores we sampled

Dense city stores keep shorter daysThe Minneapolis Nicollet Mall store (#1375) lists 7 AM to 8 PM Monday to Saturday and 9 AM to 7 PM on Sunday, and another Minneapolis store (#3200) lists 7 AM to 9 PM on weekdays and 8 AM to 9 PM at the weekend. A city center or campus location can close two to three hours before a suburban one.

No single time is true for every building, so we do not quote one national opening time. If you only need a rule of thumb, 8 AM to 10 PM is the likeliest answer, and the store page on target.com gives the exact figure for the address you pick.

CVS Pharmacy Hours Inside Target, Including Sunday and the Lunch Break

The pharmacy in a Target is run by CVS, not by Target, and it appears under its own name in the store's services. It keeps its own timetable, which is always shorter than the store's.

CVS pharmacy counters we checked on October 13, 2026
StoreMonday to FridaySaturdaySunday
Hiram, GA (#1400)9 AM – 7 PM10 AM – 6 PM11 AM – 5 PM
Sioux City, IA (#1800)9 AM – 8 PM9 AM – 6 PM10 AM – 6 PM
Goodyear, AZ (#2400)9 AM – 8 PM9 AM – 6 PM9 AM – 6 PM
Florence, KY (#1200)Mon to Thu 9 AM – 7 PM; Fri 10 AM – 6 PM9 AM – 5 PM11 AM – 5 PM
Every counter we checked closes from 1:30 to 2:00 PMAll four stores above list a half-hour break at 1:30 PM every day of the week, including Sunday. If you plan to collect a prescription around lunchtime, arrive after 2 PM.
  • Weekday closing ranged from 7 PM to 8 PM and Saturday opening from 9 AM to 10 AM, so the pharmacy is the department where hours differ most between neighboring stores.
  • Sunday opens between 9 AM and 11 AM and closes at 5 PM or 6 PM in the stores we read.
  • Not every Target has one. Some stores list a CVS pharmacy in their services and others do not, so check the services list of your store before relying on it.
  • A CVS pharmacy inside Target answers on its own phone line, which is separate from the store switchboard.

Target Sunday Hours and Weekend Differences

Sunday is where the gaps in Target's schedule show up. Most stores in our sample treat Sunday like any other day, but some trim an hour or two.

  • Most suburban stores we read keep identical hours from Monday to Sunday, for example 8 AM to 10 PM in Kentucky, Georgia, Iowa and Arizona.
  • A few stores close one hour earlier on Sunday, such as the Westminster, MD store that shows 10 PM against 11 PM Monday to Saturday.
  • The downtown Minneapolis store opens two hours later on Sunday (9 AM) and closes at 7 PM.
  • Target Optical was closed on Sunday at Florence, KY and Sioux City, IA, and opened from noon to 4 PM in Hiram, GA and Goodyear, AZ.

Since a Sunday schedule can differ at the pharmacy, optical counter and sometimes the doors, check each department you need rather than assuming that an open store means an open counter.

Is There a 24 Hour Target Near Me?

No Target we looked at is open around the clock.

Not one of the 36 stores we sampled showed a closing time later than 11 PM or an opening time earlier than 7 AM, and we know of no list of 24-hour Target stores. Searches for a 24 hour Target near me usually return the closest store that opens at 7 AM or the closest one that closes at 11 PM.

Overnight work does not mean overnight shoppingTeams stock shelves before the doors open, which is why you will see overnight stocker jobs advertised. The sales floor is not open to guests during those hours.

Target Drive Up and Order Pickup Hours

Drive Up and in-store pickup are listed among the capabilities of nearly every store page we opened, but the exact hours are not printed there.

  • Drive Up appears on the Florence, Hiram, Sioux City, Goodyear, Westminster and Minneapolis store pages we opened.
  • Pickup time slots are shown in the Target app while you check out and are tied to the store you choose, so we cannot give a national start or end time.
  • Some sites quote 8 AM to 10 PM, which matches the doors of the most common store pattern, but we could not confirm that Drive Up runs the full window.
  • Same Day Delivery and Shipt delivery are listed on the same pages as separate options.
Pick a slot, then follow its windowLate in the evening, the last available pickup slot is often well before closing. Choose the time in the app and go during the window it shows rather than at closing time.

Target Starbucks and Target Optical Hours

Two other counters have their own listings: the Starbucks cafe and Target Optical.

Cafe and optical hours at the stores we checked

Florence, KY8 AM – 8 PM dailyMon to Fri 9 AM – 7 PM, Sat 9 AM – 6 PM, Sun closed

  • The cafe closes two hours before the store in these suburban stores, at 8 PM.
  • Westminster, MD opens its cafe an hour earlier than the others, at 7 AM.
  • Target Optical is not in every store; Westminster did not list it.

Is Target Open on Thanksgiving? Black Friday Hours 2026

Target closes on Thanksgiving. 2026 falls on Thursday, November 26, and Black Friday is Friday, November 27.

The Thanksgiving closure is standing company policy: in November 2021 CEO Brian Cornell said Target would keep its stores closed on future Thanksgivings too, and stores have stayed shut every year since. A Target spokesperson told TODAY that stores opened at 6 AM local time on Black Friday, November 28, 2025, and ran to their normal closing time. Target had not published its 2026 Black Friday hours when we checked on October 25, 2026, so treat 6 AM on November 27 as the expected opening and not a promise.

Thanksgiving week 2026, based on the 2025 pattern
DateExpected status
Wednesday, November 25Regular store hours
Thursday, November 26 (Thanksgiving)Closed
Friday, November 27 (Black Friday)Expected 6 AM opening, regular closing
Online orders still workTarget.com and the app stay available on Thanksgiving, although stores are closed and in-store pickup is not available that day.

Target Christmas Eve and Christmas Day Hours

Christmas Day, Friday, December 25, 2026, is a full closure. Christmas Eve is a shortened day.

  • Christmas Eve 2025: Target's newsroom listed extended hours of 7 AM to midnight through December 23 and an 8 PM close on Christmas Eve. The 2026 Christmas Eve hours have not been announced yet.
  • Christmas Day: Target closes every store each year so team members can be with family, while the website and app stay available. Expect the same on December 25, 2026.
  • For Thursday, December 24, 2026, we expect a similar early close, but nothing has been announced. Check the store page in the week before.
  • New Year's Eve, December 31, and New Year's Day, Friday, January 1, 2027: we found no announced closure, so expect regular store hours, then confirm.

Is Target Open on Easter, Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day?

Easter is the surprise on this list, because many national chains stay open that Sunday and Target does not.

The pharmacy can be shorter than the storeOn any holiday that Target is open, the CVS counter, cafe and optical shop may run shorter days than the doors. We did not find a published holiday timetable for those counters, so call ahead.

Target Near Me, and Where to Shop When It Is Closed

The Find Stores page on target.com sorts nearby stores by distance, shows tonight's closing time and lists the capabilities of each one, which saves a trip for a counter that is not there.

  • Large formats such as SuperTarget add fresh grocery, and some stores list wine and beer with their own sales hours: the Florence, KY store shows 8 AM to 10 PM Monday to Saturday and 11 AM to 10 PM on Sunday.
  • Small-format and campus stores trim hours and services more than anything else.
  • If your Target is closed, a big-box rival or discount store may keep later hours in your town.
