What's open, closed on Easter? See hours for restaurants, stores, more

Easter is here, and whether you're looking to do some last-minute shopping or grab a bite to eat, consumers will have plenty of options to choose from on Sunday.

Many national retailers, grocery stores and restaurant chains will be open on Easter Sunday, albeit some with reduced hours. A few companies, like Costco, Target, and Macy's, will be closed. Banks, post offices, and shipping services will also largely be closed on Easter.

This year, Easter falls on Sunday, April 5. The date the holiday is celebrated depends on the year because it is one of several "moveable feasts" in the liturgical year, according to the History Channel.

Other examples include Ash Wednesday and Palm Sunday. The holiday is an important one for millions of people around the world who follow the Christian faith, as it celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ after a 40-day period known as Lent.
