Monday, Feb. 20 is Presidents Day in 2023, a holiday celebrating George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and the United States’ other commanders in chief throughout the years. Presidents Day is a federal holiday, so closures include government offices, the U.S. Postal Service and most banks and public schools.
This Monday, February 20, marks Presidents Day. The federal holiday falls on the third Monday of February, commemorating America’s 45 commanders in chief (Grover Cleveland served two nonconsecutive terms, so is considered the 22nd and 24th US President.)
Officially, the holiday is known as Washington’s Birthday, as it usually falls around George Washington’s February 22 date of birth.
Though most retail stores will be open, many corporate offices and government agencies will not be operating Monday.
Here’s what’s open and closed on Presidents Day 2023.
Banks
Presidents Day is a bank holiday in the Federal Reserve system, so most banks will be closed. Notably, TD Bank will be open on Monday, and online banking and ATM machines at other banks will be of service.
