The Next Boxing Day sale has seen long queues forming from the early hours across the country in previous years, but things will be different in 2022.

Next has more than 500 stores in the UK, including several in Wiltshire.

They include three branches in Swindon and one each in Trowbridge, Chippenham and Salisbury.

In 2021, the fashion and homeware chain announced it would close on Boxing Day to give its staff a well-earned break.

A spokesman for Next confirmed that this will be the case again in 2022, with all UK stores shut on Christmas Day and Boxing Day, which falls on a Sunday and Monday this year.

While customers won't be able to go in-store until Tuesday, December 27, they will still be able to shop the sale online over the bank holiday weekend.
