MIAMI, Florida – Memorial Day, a day dedicated to honoring and remembering the military personnel who have passed away while serving their country, is observed on the last Monday of May.
In 2025, Memorial Day falls on Monday, May 26.
Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for honoring and mourning the military personnel who have died while serving. The federal holiday is observed on the last Monday of May.
The first national observance of Memorial Day occurred on May 30, 1868, to honor the Union soldiers who had died in the Civil War.
Memorial Day continued to be observed on May 30 until 1971, when Congress changed the observance to the last Monday in May.
Most banks will be closed on Memorial Day because it is a federal holiday, and the Federal Reserve Bank is closed.
Because Memorial Day is a federal holiday, this can delay when bank deposits are credited to your account, depending on your bank’s holiday deposit schedule.
This includes deposits made by customers, payroll deposits, and other direct deposits, such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) deposits, that may not be credited to some bank accounts until Tuesday, May 27, 2025, or later.
Most banks will be closed on Memorial Day, Monday, May 26, 2025, including Ally Bank, Bank of America, Capital One, Chase Bank, CitiBank, Fifth Third Bank, HSBC, Huntington National Bank, PNC Bank, Regions Bank, SunTrust Bank, TD Bank, and Wells Fargo.
