Annual Ekadashi Calendar

Ekadashi Calendar 2026

Building the 2026 calendar

Ekadashi dates follow local sunrise, so the full year is calculated for your city.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do Ekadashi dates differ by city?

Ekadashi observance is based on local sunrise, tithi timing, Dwadashi availability, Hari Vasara, and tradition rules, so the same named Ekadashi can appear differently across cities.

Why do some Ekadashi calendar years show 26 dates?

A usual lunar year has 24 Ekadashis. Adhik Maas or Purushottam Maas years add Padmini and Parama Ekadashi, making 26 observances.

Which tradition should I follow?

Use the calendar as a planning reference, then follow your family sampradaya, local temple, or guru when Smarta and Vaishnava dates differ.
