Happy New Year, everyone! How is it 2026 already? 2025 really flew by like nobody’s business. I hope last month’s closure of 76 food centres and wet markets for spring cleaning didn’t inconvenience you in any way. That’s actually the purpose of this regular monthly series that we share at the start of every month. I’ve been told that this list is extremely useful in preventing wasted trips down to their desired hawker centres — you’re very welcome!
Well, don’t worry so much about January, for there are only 10 places affected, making this list one of the shortest I’ve ever written. And with that, here are the markets and hawker centres slated for spring cleaning in Jan 2026.
- 112 BM Market & Food Centre (112 Jalan Bukit Merah) — 12 Jan 2026
- 210 @ Lorong 8 Toa Payoh Market & Hawker Centre ( 210 Lorong 8 Toa Payoh) — 12 to 14 Jan 2026
During these 3 days of spring cleaning, those working or staying around the area may like to swing by Kim Keat Palm Food Centre instead.
- Changi Village Hawker Centre Blk 2 & 3 (2 Changi Village Road) — 5 to 7 Jan 2026
- Chong Boon Market & Food Centre (453A Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10) — 12 to 13 Jan 2026
- Dunman Food Centre ( 271 Onan Road) — 19 to 20 Jan 2026
- East Coast Lagoon Food Village (1220 ECP) — 12 to 13 Jan 2026
- Golden Mile Food Centre (505 Beach Road) — 19 to 20 Jan 2026

- Teck Ghee Court Market & Food Centre (341 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1) — 12 to 13 Jan 2026
Since Teck Ghee Courts is undergoing spring cleaning for 2 days in Jan 2026, why not head to Char Siu Lang for an array of delicious roasted meats? Or enjoy appetite-inducing tom yum mama noodles at Phuket Town Mookata.
