Let’s be hypothetical. Say you forget the gravy. Really forget it. What do you do on Christmas Day?
Your best bet is a local corner shop or a petrol station that’s open. They’re the unsung heroes of festive emergencies. Expect to pay a little more, but they’ll have the basics.

Alternatively, just improvise. Use the juice from the roasting pan? That’s basically liquid gold. You don’t need Morrisons when you have creativity.
Another fun fact: some smaller Morrisons branches in shopping centres might be open, but it’s rare. Don’t bank on it unless you’ve checked their social media.
Think of the whole situation like a Christmas movie. The chaos on Christmas Eve is your “need to find the perfect gift” scene. Christmas Day is the happy ending, where you realise you didn’t need the store anyway.
The real magic of the closure
Here’s the chill takeaway. The fact that Morrisons is closed is a gift to everyone. It forces you to be resourceful, or just accept that you’ll eat dry turkey this year.
It also reminds us that not everything needs to be open. Some days are for resting, and Christmas is the biggest rest day of the year.
So, to answer your original question: No, Morrisons is not open on Christmas Day. But that’s actually a good thing. It means someone is enjoying their roast, too.
Embrace the closure. Put your feet up. And if you really need a loaf of bread, just ask your neighbour. They probably have a spare. Morrisons can wait until tomorrow.
