Rite Aid hours, holidays, and savings

Rite Aid operates roughly 1,700 retail pharmacy locations across the United States. Headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and founded in 1962, it's one of the most relied-on chains for prescription fills, walk-in vaccinations, and front-store essentials.

Standard Rite Aid hours

Store hoursMonday–Saturday 8:00am–10:00pm, Sunday 9:00am–9:00pm
Pharmacy counterMonday–Friday 9:00am–9:00pm, Saturday 9:00am–6:00pm, Sunday 10:00am–6:00pm

The hours above are the chain-wide defaults. Individual stores adjust based on local market demand, lease terms with the surrounding shopping center, and staffing. The Rite Aid store locator publishes the exact hours for every location in JSON-LD format on the location page, and we use that data as the source of truth on every chain × city page on this site.

24-hour Rite Aid locations

Rite Aid does not operate true 24-hour stores at scale. A handful of urban locations stay open later than the chain average, but overnight prescription needs typically route to Walgreens or CVS in most markets.
