McDonald’s Confirms Regular Hours on Labor Day

September 1, 2025 - McDonald’s restaurants across the United States will remain open during their regular business hours today in observance of Labor Day. As one of the few nationwide chains to operate year-round, McDonald’s continues its commitment to availability even on major holidays.

According to the company’s published holiday schedule, all McDonald’s locations will observe standard hours on Monday, September 1, with no reductions for Labor Day service. While hours are set to remain unchanged, customers are advised that individual franchisees may adjust opening times at their discretion.

In a statement to USA TODAY, a McDonald’s spokesperson reiterated that “most restaurants nationwide operate on holidays,” and encouraged guests to “use our store locator tool to confirm hours at your local restaurant” before visiting.

With Labor Day marking the unofficial end of summer, McDonald’s expects high demand from families and travelers seeking quick, familiar meals during holiday festivities. The chain’s unwavering holiday operations provide a convenient dining option amid closures of many banks and federal offices today.
