The Hong Kong Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) announced on 10 November 2026 that remaining stalls for the 2027 Lunar New Year fair will be available for rental at base price from 17 November. The fair is scheduled to run from 31 January to 6 February 2027.
The remaining stalls comprise four fast-food stalls, two large dry-goods stalls and 32 standard dry-goods stalls. The FEHD noted that the number of available stalls may change, with the actual figures to be confirmed on 17 November.
Interested individuals must apply in person at designated FEHD offices between 9:30am and 12:30pm or 2:30pm and 4:30pm on the application dates. Applicants must be aged 18 or above and ordinarily resident in Hong Kong, with each person limited to renting one stall.
Successful applicants must comply with all terms and conditions of the特许协议 (licence agreement). The FEHD stressed that stall holders are prohibited from assigning, subletting, transferring or otherwise relinquishing any benefit or responsibility under the agreement. Violation could result in termination of the licence and immediate vacation of the stall.
Stall holders will be allowed to set up their stalls from 28 to 30 January 2027, three days before the fair opens. If unforeseen circumstances shorten the licence period, the government may delay the start date and reduce the licence period, with the FEHD refunding the rental fee proportionately without interest.
All stalls must be dismantled and cleared of goods and waste by 7am on 6 February, except for Victoria Park's fair where the deadline is 9am. Stall holders may voluntarily deliver unsold flowers and potted plants to the FEHD for disposal by these deadlines, but will not receive compensation.
The FEHD reminded stall holders that they may only sell and promote permitted goods within their stalls. The department may order cessation of any activity it deems illegal, harmful to national security, immoral or inconsistent with the fair's purpose. Dry-goods stalls must not exceed three metres in height, while wet-goods and fast-food stalls must not exceed 4.5 metres. Additional safety certifications are required for structures exceeding three metres.
