Is Publix, Costco open or closed on Juneteenth? What to know about stores, banks, mail
Juneteenth is Thursday, June 19. Americans will celebrate the day 170 years ago when about a quarter billion of the last enslaved Black people in the country were finally told they were free. Juneteenth has been a federal holiday since 2021. Non-essential federal offices, stock markets and most banks will be closed and there will be no U.S. mail delivery, although other delivery services such as UPS and FedEx will be available. However, Juneteenth, which has been a federal holiday since 2021, is not a Florida state holiday and most local governments and all state offices will remain open. What about shopping? Most stores and restaurants will be open on June 19, although some chains such as Starbucks offer employees the option of a paid day off or holiday pay. Juneteenth is celebrated on June 19 every year. In 2025, that's a Thursday. Juneteenth marks the day in 1865, two months after the Civil War ended and 2½ years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, when Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and told the state's remaining 250,000 enslaved people that they were free and that Union troops would enforce it. For non-federal workers, no. Only about half of the states in the U.S. recognize Juneteenth as an official holiday, although more are considering it. Florida is not one of them. Florida does not officially recognize the holiday and doesn't have the day on official calendars as a paid holiday, although some county commissions and city councils have declared Juneteenth a recognized holiday and closed offices. Is Juneteenth a Florida state holiday? Is it a paid day off? What to know about history Most restaurants, grocery and retail stores will be open. Publix is only closed on three days a year: Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Publix locations will be open normal hours. All other grocery stores should also be open, but always check with your favorite local store to make sure. No. Most businesses remain open for the holiday.
