Questions
February 2026 festivals — common questions
Which festivals fall in February 2026?
Magha Purnima (1), Maha Shivratri (15). Every date is computed for sunrise in New Delhi.
When is Ekadashi in February 2026?
13 February 2026, 27 February 2026.
When are Purnima and Amavasya in February 2026?
Purnima: none this month. Amavasya: 17 February 2026.
Are these dates the same in every city?
Nearly, but not always. Sunrise decides which day a tithi names and sunrise differs across India by well over an hour, so in some years an observance falls on a different day in two cities. Each festival's own page has a city switcher.
