Center Parcs and Odeon cinemas among places to close on Monday for Queen's funeral

Ahead of the Queen's funeral on Monday, September 19, dozens of supermarkets and businesses across the nation have confirmed that they will either be closed, or operating on limited opening hours as a mark of respect.

Supermarkets such as Sainsbury's and Aldi confirmed that they will not open on Monday, with many others only opening after the funeral takes place. The closure of holiday destination Center Parcs has also sparked outrage amongst Brits as the popular woodland retreat chain confirmed that they will be asking holidaymakers to leave the area, although people's belongings can stay within their accommodation until Tuesday morning.

The company is being inundated with complaints after it revealed that its five parks will close for 24 hours from 10am on Monday. Guests midway through seven-day holidays - which generally cost more than £1,000 for a family-of-four at this time of year - will be forced to spend the night elsewhere or go home early.
