Retail shops in Athens will operate in extended opening hours due to the Easter Holidays. The extended working hours start Thursday, March 29th 2018 and end on Holy Saturday, April 7th.

On Palm Sunday, April 1st, retail shops will be open.

The general plan is as follows:

In Thessaloniki, shops will be open Monday to Thursday from 10:00 until 21:00; good Friday as in Athens, Holy Saturday until 16:00. Palm Sunday 11:00 to 18:00
