In [[Turkey]], nationwide celebrated holidays are referred to as {{lang|tr|[[bayram (Turkey)|bayram]]}}, and Eid al-Fitr is referred to as both {{lang|tr|Ramazan Bayramı}} ("Ramadan {{lang|tr|Bayram}}") and {{lang|tr|Şeker Bayramı}} ("{{lang|tr|Bayram}} of Sweets/Sugar"). It is a time for people to attend prayer services, put on their best clothes (referred to as {{lang|tr|bayramlık}}, often purchased just for the occasion), visit all their loved ones (such as relatives, neighbors, and friends), and pay their respects to the deceased with organised visits to cemeteries. It is also customary for young children to go around their neighborhood, door to door, and wish everyone a "Happy {{lang|tr|Bayram}}", for which they are awarded candy, chocolates, traditional sweets such as [[baklava]] and [[Turkish delight]], or a small amount of money at every door.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bayar |first1=Gozde |title=Turkey celebrates Eid al-Fitr |url=https://www.aa.com.tr/en/turkey/turkey-celebrates-eid-al-fitr/1496686 |website=aaNews |access-date=4 June 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190608051926/https://www.aa.com.tr/en/turkey/turkey-celebrates-eid-al-fitr/1496686 |archive-date=8 June 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref>

During Ramadan, many restaurants and cafes may have limited operating hours during the day and may be closed during fasting hours. In the middle of the night drummers circulate through towns and villages to wake sleepers so they can prepare Sahur, the big early-morning meal to be eaten before the fast begins again at sunrise. They tend to make their noise around 02:30 and 03:00 am, and they make sure everyone hears them.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://turkeytravelplanner.com/Religion/ramazan.html |title=Ramazan (Ramadan) in Turkey}}</ref> Turkish people invites anyone to break the fast together in the order of inviting older relatives first, other relatives, neighbors who are quite close, and some areas that have village's leaders, teachers, and caretakers where the order has been determined by tradition.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://newinn.com/the-experience-of-ramadan-in-turkey/ |title=Ramadan Experience in Turkey &#124; Newinn |date=7 April 2022}}</ref>
