Thursday, January 1, 2026.

Confirmed on the official schedule.

What to expect

Branches close and the Federal Reserve does not process check clearing, ACH or wire transfers, so deposits made on the holiday post the next business day. ATMs and online banking still work.

Some branches, such as those inside grocery stores, keep their own hours. Check your branch before you go.
