For Bank Holiday Monday, Sunday hours will also apply.   Aldi Aldi stores will be open from 9am to 9pm on Saturday, Sunday and Monday across the country, except where the usual local planning restrictions apply.     Tesco Most Tesco shops are operating as usual across the long weekend, with many open til 10pm or 11pm each night.
