If you want to shop at the mall after your Thanksgiving feast, you’ll need to wait until Black Friday.

Most major malls in South Florida are closed on the holiday. That’s different from a string of pre-pandemic years, when malls opened on Thanksgiving evening and often stayed open all night and into Friday.
