Typical Target Store Hours
Based on Target’s official store pages, a standard schedule runs from 7 a.m. opening to around 11 p.m. closing, though some stores close as early as 10 p.m. on specific days. For example, the Fort Worth Central location in Fort Worth, Texas opens at 7 a.m. daily and closes at 11:59 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with an 11 p.m. closing on Sunday. This reflects a common pattern but is not universal across all locations.
Hours also differ for Target services within the same store. At the Fort Worth location, Target Optical operates 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., the Starbucks Cafe runs 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and the CVS pharmacy has split hours of 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Wine and beer are available during the store’s full operating hours.
How Store Hours Vary by Location and Day
Target does not publish a single standard closing time across all stores. Each location sets its own hours based on local demand and market conditions. Your store may open at 7 a.m. but close at 10 p.m., 11 p.m., or even 11:59 p.m. depending on the day and location. Sunday hours are sometimes different from weekday and Saturday hours, as shown in the Fort Worth example above.
The only reliable way to know your store’s exact hours is to check directly rather than assume any schedule applies nationwide.
How to Find Your Target Store’s Hours Online
Target provides two official methods to look up store hours:
Using Target.com
- Go to Target.com and select Find stores in the upper right corner of the home page.
- Enter your ZIP code, city, and state, then select Find store.
- From the local store list, select Store info under your desired location.
- The full week’s hours and services will display.
Using the Target App
- Open the Target app and go to the Account tab.
- Find the store icon and look for your store name with hours listed directly below it.
- To see the full weekly schedule, select Change, then the information icon (i) next to Store hours.
- You can also search for other nearby store hours by selecting the information icon on any listed store, or enter a city, state, or ZIP code to find additional locations.
What to Do If Hours Change
Target stores may adjust hours for holidays or special events. Always verify hours the day before or day of your visit, especially on major holidays or during seasonal promotions. The Target app and website reflect real-time hours, so they are more reliable than memorized schedules.
Department and Service Hours Within Your Store
Keep in mind that departments and services inside Target may have different hours than the main store. Target Optical, pharmacy services, and in-store cafes typically close earlier than the store itself. For example, a store may stay open until 11:59 p.m., but its pharmacy might close at 8 p.m. Check the specific service hours on your store’s page before making a trip for that service.
Call Your Local Store
If you have trouble finding hours online or need confirmation for a specific date, call your store directly. The phone number appears on every store’s Target.com page. Staff can confirm whether the store is open and provide information about specific departments.
Comparing Target to Other Retailers
Target’s hours are comparable to other major retailers. If you shop at multiple chains, check Walmart store hours and Aldi store hours the same way to plan your shopping trip efficiently. Each retailer’s website and app have similar store locator features.
Return Hours and Target return policy Timing
Store hours affect when you can make returns. Make sure to return items during the store’s regular operating hours, as customer service desks close with the store. Some Target locations offer extended return windows, so confirm your store’s specific Target return policy when planning a return visit.
