Do you worry that local business closures are reducing the social options in your area?

Voodoo Brewing Scranton has announced it will permanently close on September 30, 2026. The establishment is currently operating with a skeleton crew as it winds down local operations in Lackawanna County.

Why it matters

The closure marks the end of this specific location in the brewery chain, requiring customers to finalize any outstanding business before the end of the month. Management is currently working to address concerns regarding previously booked events.

The Scranton site is operating with a skeleton crew and will maintain limited hours until its final day, when it will open from 4 to 9 p.m. Operating hours leading up to the closure include noon to 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday.

The players

Voodoo Brewing Scranton

This establishment is a local branch of a broader craft beer company currently preparing to exit the Scranton market.

The details

Staff members have requested that all customers redeem their location-specific gift cards prior to the final closure date, as these will not be honored at other Voodoo Brewing branches. Individuals who have already scheduled events at the venue are directed to reach out to management immediately.

Timeline

  1. September 25-27, 2026: The brewery operates during scheduled weekend hours.

  2. September 28-29, 2026: The facility will be closed to the public.

  3. September 30, 2026: The brewery marks its final day of operation.

Market Landscape

This closure reflects a broader trend of regional contraction within the craft brewing industry as chains re-evaluate their footprint. The move shifts the competitive landscape in Lackawanna County by removing one established player from the local market.

Local patrons must ensure they redeem any existing gift cards before September 30, 2026, as they will not be valid elsewhere. Customers with reservations should contact management to discuss their booked events before the business permanently shuts down.

The takeaway

When a chain location announces a permanent closure, acting quickly to redeem loyalty credits and resolve outstanding bookings is essential. Check official local announcements for any changes to final operating hours or event policies before the last day.
