While Good Friday is a stock market holiday, it is not a federal holiday. So for those wondering "Are banks open on Good Friday?," the answer to that question is yes. Friday, April 18, is not one of the 11 bank holidays in 2025, and so banks will be open on Good Friday.

Banks will be closed on Easter Sunday, though this is because they are generally closed every Sunday. Several retailers have recently announced that they will be closed on Easter Sunday, as well, including Lowe's.

Lowe's CEO Mark Ellison said the home improvement retailer is closing all of its 1,700 stores for the entirety of Easter Sunday in order to give its team "a well-deserved day off so they can spend Easter with their loved ones."

Below, we feature a full schedule of all stock market holidays and bond market holidays for 2025.
