The fair was scheduled to start on January 1. It was shifted to January 3 after the government declared a three-day national mourning over the death of former Prime Minister and BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia.

In this year’s fair, the use of polythene bags and single-use plastics has been prohibited. As an alternative, eco-friendly shopping bags will be supplied at reduced prices through the Ministry of Textiles and Jute.
