Mercadona will have a different opening schedule depending on the autonomous community during the All Saints’ Day long weekend. On Sunday, November 1, practically all of its stores in Spain will remain closed. On Monday, the 2nd, the closure will continue in nine communities, while in the other eight their supermarkets will generally open.
More than 800 stores will close on Monday, mainly in the territories that have moved the holiday for All Saints’ Day to that day. For those who shop at these stores, Saturday, October 31, will be the last opportunity before the two consecutive days of closure.
The exception matters: not all the chain’s supermarkets have the same schedule. Before traveling, it is advisable to check the specific store’s listing in Mercadona’s official supermarket search engine.
Is Mercadona open on Sunday, November 1?
On Sunday, November 1, All Saints’ Day, Mercadona will close practically all its stores, according to the company’s confirmation reported by ABC.
Therefore, it should not be assumed that a supermarket will open that day simply because it is located in a commercial or tourist area. Any possible exceptions must be checked individually.
One of the announced openings is that of the Mercadona at the Ànecblau shopping center, in Castelldefels, Barcelona. According to the query of the public official locator, this establishment, located at 24 Avenida del Canal Olímpic, is scheduled to open on Sunday, November 1, from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. That opening does not extend to all stores in Barcelona or Catalonia.
Where Mercadona closes on Monday, November 2
Monday will concentrate the main differences. According to the company’s information passed on to ABC, Mercadona will generally close in Andalusia, Aragon, Asturias, the Canary Islands, Castilla-La Mancha, Castile and León, the Community of Madrid, Extremadura, and Navarre.
In these nine communities, Monday’s closure will be added to Sunday’s. The next regular opening day will be Tuesday, November 3, except for particular circumstances of the establishment or local holidays.
The 2026 labor calendar reflects territorial differences in the observance of holidays. However, the labor calendar and commercial hours are not the same: to know whether a store is open, the definitive reference must be the information published by the chain for that supermarket.

How to check whether your Mercadona opens during the holiday weekend
The inquiry must be made by establishment, especially if you are going to shop in a municipality different from your usual one:
1. Enter Mercadona’s official supermarket search engine.
2. Enter the locality, the address or the postal code.
3. Select the store you want to go to.
4. Check the opening and closing notices for November 1 and 2, as well as the regular hours.
The most important data is the notice corresponding to the specific day. That a store usually opens on Mondays does not mean it will do so this November 2; likewise, an exceptional opening on Sunday does not change the schedule of the rest of the establishments.
