B&M over Christmas
B&M, like many other retailers, will be closed on December 25, 2024.
The shop will also shut early on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day, so their workers can enjoy a break.
However, unlike other high-street shops, B&M will remain open on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.
The store will operate under reduced hours on December 31, 2024, and January 1, 2025, though.
On both of these days, the store will close at 6pm.
Check in-store for more information about your local B&M's closing time.

B&M's story
B&M was founded by Malcolm Billington and Brian Mayman in 1978.
The pair launched their company in Cleveleys, before it was bought out in 1996.
The company was acquired by Phildrew Investments in 2004 and went on to see significant growth in the succeeding years.
By 2014, the chain had opened its 400th store and, by 2018, it acquired the French discount retailer Babou.
Babou stores were soon replaced by B&M shops.
The brand tightened its grip on the high street in 2023 when it acquired 51 Wilko stores from the administrator for £13 million.
