ATLANTA, GA (CNN) — Chick-fil-A employees will have an entire weekend off to celebrate Christmas this year.

The popular fast-food chain is always closed on Christmas, but this year the holiday falls on a Saturday (and Chick-fil-A is also always closed on Sundays), meaning if you’re craving chicken Christmas weekend, you’ll have to look elsewhere.

All 2,600 U.S. locations will reopen on Dec. 27.

The chain will also stay open for New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.
