Are ABC stores in Charlotte open on Thanksgiving? Here’s when to buy holiday booze
Thanksgiving is this Thursday, and if you need any liquor for the holiday, you’ll need to plan ahead.
Some grocery stores and convenience stores will be open on Thursday if you want to buy wine and beer, but Thanksgiving is one of the holidays that ABC stores across North Carolina are closed.
“No ABC store shall be open, and no ABC store employee shall sell alcoholic beverages, on any Sunday, New Year’s Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, or Christmas Day,” the ABC Commission of North Carolina website says. “A local board may otherwise determine the days on which its stores shall be closed.”

Even though all ABC stores in Mecklenburg County will be closed on Thanksgiving, they will be open during regular hours before the holiday from 11 a.m.-9 p.m.
Some locations also take online orders with the new ABC TO GO mobile app to pick up in stores. You can find more information and find your closest location at www.meckabc.com.
