It will be a day of celebration – for workers at that – but someone will open anyway. Despite the strike called by some trade unions who are asking to be able to spend May 1st at home, with their loved ones, several shops and supermarkets will open today.
Hours and openings May 1st
At the Euroma2 shopping centre, where the employees’ protest against the “always open” logic started, the opening hours are 10am-9pm for the shops and until 10pm for the restaurant area, on the top floor. The hypermarket, however, is closed: shopping yes, but no last minute shopping for the barbecue with friends.
