The four day weekend is just around the corner and with the weather on our side it’s set to be a warm one with the average temperature in the build up to bank holiday set at 21 degrees.
While cooler than previous heatwaves we have seen this year, it makes for perfect BBQ weather and many will be looking forward to enjoying dining alfresco this August Bank Holiday.
Or even if you’re just snuggling up on the couch for a Netflix binge, whatever your plans are, it’s likely to involve over indulging on all your favourite food – it is the last bank holiday before Christmas after all!

So it’s worth noting that the supermarket opening times are likely to be reduced over the long weekend to make sure you don’t get caught out low on supplies.
We’ve rounded up the August Bank Holiday weekend trading hours for Asda, Morrisons, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Aldi, M&S and more.
However, it’s worth noting that there may be variation from store to store, so it’s always best to check with your local branch beforehand.
