• McDonald's has issued an alert to customers about an important date change. The fast-food chain is set to close all its UK and Ireland restaurants on Monday, September 19, 2022, to mark the Queen's funeral. This closure will affect over 1,300 McDonald's locations across the UK and Ireland.

• The decision to close all McDonald's restaurants on the day of the Queen's funeral is in line with the national mourning period and the UK government's guidance. This means that customers will not be able to visit McDonald's on September 19, as all restaurants will be closed to allow employees to pay their respects.

• McDonald's has urged customers to check their website and social media channels for the latest updates on the closure and any potential changes to their normal operating hours. The company has also encouraged customers to plan ahead and make alternative arrangements for their food needs on the day of the Queen's funeral.
