From bustling Raya bazaars and festive marketplaces to meaningful ways to give back, HomeTeamNS’ Sinar Raya brings everything you need to get celebration‑ready all in one place.
Chinese New Year has barely ended, but Ramadan is already well underway. And before you know it, Hari Raya Aidilfitri will be here in the blink of an eye, and you’ll find yourself scrambling to get matching baju raya for your family and prepare enough rendang, sayur lodeh, and kueh to feed your relatives.
If just the thought of the massive crowds and traffic jams is already giving you a headache, fret not. Skip all the frantic mall-hopping and simply head over to HomeTeamNS’s clubhouses in Bedok Reservoir, Bukit Batok, and Khatib to get all your Hari Raya shopping done in one shot.
Get your Notes app ready, and let’s start checking off your list of things to do for Hari Raya.
As with any other Hari Raya rendition, the golden rule of thumb is to get all the big-ticket items out of the way first. Some may call this kiasu, but you know better: the very first weekend of March is the perfect time to call first dibs on the best snacks, outfits, and furniture.
Your first stop is Jom Raya Marketplace at HomeTeamNS Khatib. Running from 6-8 March 2026 (11 am – 8 pm), this pre-Raya marketplace at the Level 1 Thoroughfare boasts a curated selection of Hari Raya necessities such as festive treats, traditional attire, home décor, gift items, and daily essentials.
If you’re a Westie then check out Raya Fiesta at HomeTeamNS Bukit Batok during the same period from 6-8 March (11am – 8pm). Situated at Lobby A, you’ll find a similar selection of Raya products and treats, ready for you to prep for the upcoming celebrations in one convenient space.
From 5-30 March, HomeTeamNS members can visit any HomeTeamNS clubhouse, count the ketupats displayed around the Hari Raya centrepiece, submit your answer through the mobile app, and stand a chance to win a delightful Hari Raya cookie set worth $68. A sweet treat for a keen eye! The contest ends on 30 March 2026, 8pm and 6 lucky winners will be contacted before 3 April 2026.
Your house is clean, the decorations are up, and the ingredients are ready for the big cook-off on Hari Raya morning. You think you’re all set but wait: you realise you’ve forgotten to get new décor, and your relative from overseas suddenly dropped you a text to say that they can make it after all.
You’re not alone in your final frenzy, and this is where the Last Kopek Bazaar at HomeTeamNS Bedok Reservoir comes in to save the day. Done in collaboration with Mamanda, this bazaar will run at Level 2 Atrium from 9-15 March 2026 (12 pm – 9 pm), where you can stock up on your finishing touches with Hari Raya kueh, festive clothing, décor, and more.
With the last kopek prep done and dusted, your next—and probably most important step—is to get the green packets ready. Before you head to the bank to withdraw fresh notes, make sure you have beautiful sampul duit raya on hand to slot them in.
And where better to get your sampul duit raya than HomeTeamNS? From 6-20 March 2026, simply visit any HomeTeamNS clubhouse and complete these steps to get your complimentary green packet:
While you’re busy getting things ready for the Raya festivities, don’t forget to practise the true spirit of Ramadan: charity, empathy, and community spirit. Once you have your family sorted, it’s time to extend some of this warmth to families in need.
From 20 February to 14 March 2026, participate in the Gift It Forward campaign at all three HomeTeamNS clubhouses, held in collaboration with FairPrice and in support of Fei Yue Community Services.
Between 20 February and 6 March 2026, members and the public can contribute $25 to sponsor a FairPrice curated food pack or make a monetary donation via a QR code, which will go towards supporting families in need during the festive season. The packs will then be collated and distributed to families under Fei Yue’s care before Hari Raya. Monetary donations via the Fei Yue QR code will continue to be accepted until 14 March 2026, allowing contributors to support the cause even after the food‑pack sponsorship period ends. Find out how you can do so here.
This campaign allows you to give back to the community in a meaningful and tangible way, sharing your blessings with the people who need them most.
Raya preparation doesn’t need to be a stressfest. HomeTeamNS has got you covered, letting you complete your shopping amidst a lovely festive atmosphere, where you also get to support local vendors and give back to the community.
