PEOPLE around the world have kept up to speed with newspapers over the years.
Whether you are an avid newspaper reader or occasionally have a flick through, read on to find out how you’ll get your news fix over the late May bank holiday.
Are newspapers published and delivered on the late May bank holiday?
Most daily national newspapers are published on every bank holiday including the late May holiday.
Papers have continued to publish regardless of the bank holidays, though some still like to uphold traditions and not sell a copy.
There are some publications, such as the Financial Times, that don’t publish on selected bank holidays or Sundays.
It is always worth checking online to clarify if your paper of choice will be printed.
Are newspapers delivered during the late May bank holiday?
If you have a print subscription you should expect your delivery as normal.
However, it may still be best to check if the bank holiday will disrupt your delivery.
You can still buy a paper from your local retailer on the bank holiday, but it may be best to check their opening times beforehand to avoid arriving at a closed shop.
If you find that your usual newspaper isn’t going to be delivered to your door, you can go online to access the news.
