This weekend marks the start of the All Saints’ Day long weekend, which once again disrupts the business schedules in Seville. November 1 falls on a Sunday, so the regional holiday has been moved to Monday. And unlike Sunday, November 2 is listed on the official calendar of the Regional Government of Andalusia as a day when businesses are authorized to open.
So, it’s worth asking which supermarkets and shopping centers are open on either day of All Saints’ Day in Seville so you can plan your grocery shopping or leisure activities.
Which shopping centers are open in Seville on All Saints’ Day?
- The Cartuja shopping complex, Torre Sevilla, will be fully open on Sunday (retail, services, and dining, from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.) as well as on Monday.
- Lagoh Sevilla is adjusting its operating hours for All Saints’ Day. On Sunday, the shopping arcades will remain closed, while movie theaters, entertainment venues, and outdoor cafes will continue to operate during their regular hours. On Monday, the mall will be fully open from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
- The same applies to Los Arcos; stores will be closed on Sunday and will open as usual on Monday from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
