The holiday season is a time of celebration and spending time with loved ones, but many places will remain open on Christmas Day. While traditional retail stores such as department stores, supermarkets, and gas stations will likely be closed, many other businesses will be open. Pharmacies, hospitals, and emergency services will remain operational as well as some restaurants and movie theaters. Additionally, many restaurants will offer take-out and delivery services to accommodate those who prefer to stay home. It's important to check with local businesses to confirm their hours of operation for Christmas Day.
