What time do you close tonight?
chiu-DE-te — three syllables; the 'ch' before 'i' is a hard 'k' sound; stress on the second syllable.
Use this when you need to know closing time, for example if you plan to return later or are racing against the clock.
'A che ora' (at what time) + 'chiudete' (do you close, second-person plural present of chiudere). 'Stasera' (tonight) can be replaced with 'oggi' (today) or 'domani' (tomorrow). Tabaccherie typically close between 7 and 8 p.m., sometimes later in tourist areas.

Asking about total daily hours
Ci siete anche di agosto?
Are you open in August?
August is holiday season in Italy — many small shops close for 2–4 weeks
Italian tobacconists in tourist areas often extend their hours significantly compared to neighbourhood ones. In summer, a tabaccheria near the sea or a major monument may stay open until 9 or even 10 p.m. In August, the traditional Italian holiday month, closures for 'ferie' (annual leave) are common.
