Time is flying at a slightly frightening pace — we’ve already arrived at May. And yes, that means only one thing: I’m back with the 5th instalment of our monthly food centre and market spring-cleaning series. With tons of mynas cleverly figuring out how to conquer the anti-bird netting fixtures at some hawker centres, coupled with the rising number of rats and cockroaches everywhere, keeping the premises clean and hygienic is important for our health.

So without further delay, here are the 20 hawker centres and wet markets that will be closed for spring cleaning in May 2026 — is your beloved food centre affected? If it is, time to make alternative plans.
