Is Walmart Open on Christmas Eve?
Yes, Walmart stores are open on Christmas Eve. Great. But what about Walmart 24-hour Supercenters? According to a Walmart rep, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, stores won’t return to 24 hours anytime soon, if ever. While the future of the 24-hour Walmart remains in limbo, this holiday season Walmart Christmas Eve hours will be from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. This gives you plenty of time to gather last-minute gifts, stocking stuffers, and groceries for the family feast. Check your local Walmart for specific Christmas Eve hours.

Walmart Pickup Holiday Hours
Don’t want to face the in-store shopping experience at Walmart on Christmas Eve? Walmart will offer free curbside pickup on Christmas Eve with limited hours. A Walmart customer service rep shared with us that pickup should be available between 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. You’ll need to exercise patience because it’s likely to be very busy. Of course, you can avoid the craziness by completing your last-minute shopping before Dec. 24.
Does Walmart offer same-day delivery on Christmas Eve?
For same-day delivery, you’ll need to place your order by 1 p.m. and select Express Delivery. This 2-hour or less service will cost you a $10 delivery fee on top of regular delivery fees of $9.95. If you’re a Walmart+ member, express delivery will only cost you the $10 delivery. The earlier you place your order on Christmas Eve, the better; the later it gets on Christmas, the less chance you’ll get your order the same day.
