If you brave the aisles on Christmas Eve morning, prepare for a high-energy circus. There will be trolleys driven by tired parents, crying toddlers, and the smell of slightly stressed-out Christmas shoppers.
Morrisons Christmas and New Year opening times for 2026
The bakery will be pumping out gorgeous fresh bread and mince pies. The flower section will look like a botanical fairyland. But the chilled aisle for turkey and trimmings? That’s a war zone. Go early or go home empty-handed.
Also, a little secret: Morrisons often slash prices on fresh goods like veg and turkey on Christmas Eve afternoon. You might snag a massive bag of potatoes for a quid. It’s like a pre-Christmas treasure hunt, but with less sand and more Brussels sprouts.
The “Click & Collect” and Delivery Gamble
Thinking of getting it delivered? Good luck with that. Most delivery slots vanished by the first week of December. If you’re reading this on Christmas Eve, your driver is already wearing a Santa hat and ignoring your phone calls.
However, Morrisons’ “Click & Collect” service might still have availability, especially for afternoon slots. It’s worth checking online, but don’t hold your breath. The website might be glitchy from the sheer weight of last-minute panic.
Remember: if you do manage to snag a slot, be nice to the staff. They are the unsung heroes who make sure your festive feast isn’t a sad bowl of cereal.
