Foot Locker is closed for Thanksgiving this year.

The company told Insider that all of its North American stores, distribution centers, customer care units, production facilities, and corporate offices will be closed on the holiday.

If you have a tradition of camping out Thanksgiving night for the newest releases and early Black Friday deals, you may want to rethink your plans this year.

Foot Locker is not the only store that will be closed on Thanksgiving. Best Buy, Walmart, and Target have also announced that they will not be open on the holiday.

"Our team members have worked incredibly hard to exceed our customer's expectations under extraordinary circumstances," Foot Locker CEO, Frank Bracken, told Insider in a statement. "We want to acknowledge their hard work and commitment to our customers, their communities, and one another. Their well-being is a top priority, and we want them to spend some well-deserved time off with friends, family, and loved ones."
