IPOH: A total of 1,561 trading lots across 22 locations will be made available for the Ipoh City Council’s (MBI) Ramadan Bazaar 2027, which is expected to begin in early February next year.

In a statement, MBI said hawkers’ associations, hawkers’ cooperatives, private agencies, residents’ committees and other interested parties could submit applications to organise the bazaars.
Application forms can be obtained from the Hawker Management Unit, Public Health and Municipal Services Department, on Level 5 of the MBI building.
Applications are open from Nov 4 to 17, 2026, while the list of locations can be found in the advertisement for the Ramadan Bazaar 2027 organising tender, which will be published from Nov 4.
“If more than one application is received for a particular location, MBI will select the successful applicant based on the evaluation and selection criteria established for Ramadan Bazaar organisers.
“MBI also encourages interested organisers to propose additional locations beyond those listed, subject to prior application and approval from the council.
“We hope the Ramadan Bazaar 2027 will run smoothly while providing business opportunities and a source of income for traders and small-scale hawkers within the MBI area,” it said.
