Betting Shop Sunday Opening Times
Compare Sunday opening and closing times for every major bookmaker across the UK and Ireland.
Sunday is one of the biggest days of the sporting week, with a full Premier League card, Sunday horse racing and — in Ireland — GAA Championship action. The good news for punters is that nearly every betting shop in the UK and Ireland opens its doors on a Sunday, just a little later than on weekdays.
In the UK, most shops open between 9:00 AM and 9:30 AM and close at their usual 10:00 PM. In the Republic of Ireland, Sunday trading rules mean shops generally open from 12:00 noon to 6:00 PM. Below you'll find the typical Sunday hours for each bookmaker, with a link to the full Sunday guide for each brand.
