Google Business Profile Holiday Hours
Are you ready for the upcoming set of public holidays?
Maybe you’re taking some extended leave and your business will be shut? Or perhaps you will be substituting a public holiday?
Whatever the reason may be, if your hours of operation change for a brief period of time, you can set holiday hours so that your regular hours don’t change on Google.
🌟Set holiday hours🌟
Go to your Business Profile.
– On Google Search, search for “my business“.
– On Google Search or Maps, search for your business’s name and city.
– In the Google Maps app Maps, at the bottom right, tap “Business“.

After your hours are saved, you can find them in the “Hours” tab in your “Business information” or directly in “Edit profile” under “Special hours.”
*Note: It’s always a good idea to confirm your hours for official holidays, even if they’re the same as your regular hours. This makes it clear to customers that your holiday hours are accurate.
