Hobby Lobby is a US arts and crafts retail chain with more than 1,000 stores across 48 states, selling fabric, yarn, home decor, framing, scrapbooking, seasonal craft supplies, and party goods.

The questions most shoppers have about a Hobby Lobby store are short: what time does it open today, is Hobby Lobby open Sunday, what about Labor Day, Thanksgiving, or Christmas Eve?

One quirk to know up front: Hobby Lobby is closed every Sunday at every store, not because of the holiday calendar but because of the chain founder David Green and the Green family choosing to give staff a weekly day off.

Hours are uniform across the chain (Monday to Saturday 9 AM to 8 PM is the standard everywhere), but the locator further down the page confirms exact times for the Hobby Lobby nearest you.

Is Hobby Lobby open on Saturday?

Yes, Hobby Lobby is open every Saturday at every store, running on the same 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM schedule as a regular weekday. Saturday is one of the busiest shopping days for the chain since the Sunday closure pushes weekend craft shoppers to Saturday. Some stores may extend hours slightly during peak craft seasons (Halloween, Christmas, back-to-school), but 9 AM to 8 PM is the year-round baseline.

Is Hobby Lobby open on Sunday?

No, Hobby Lobby is closed on Sunday at every store across the country. This is a chain-wide corporate policy set by founder David Green and the Green family, who observe Sunday as a day of rest. The closure is religious in origin and has been in place since the company started in 1972. There is no exception (no flagship, no holiday-Sunday, no weekend-mall location stays open). For Sunday craft shopping, the alternatives are competitors like Michaels or buying online at hobbylobby.com.

Is Hobby Lobby open on Sunday?

Why is Hobby Lobby closed on Sunday?

Hobby Lobby closes on Sunday because of the religious values of the chain's founders.
