The day named is the one on which the tithi is running at sunrise. A row marked near sunrise begins within an hour of it, and calendars made for other cities may name the day before or after.

Ekadashi dates for the next twelve months — calculated for your place
Ekadashi falls on the 11th tithi of each paksha. The list below is computed for the sunrise at your place, so the day is right for where you are, with the time each tithi begins and ends.
The short answer
Ekadashi is kept on the 11th tithi of each paksha, and the date changes every month because a tithi is a lunar day, not a calendar one. The day for Ekadashi is the one on which that tithi is running at sunrise at your place; when the tithi begins after sunrise it is kept the next day. This page computes the Moon's elongation from the Sun for each sunrise at your location over the coming twelve months and lists every Ekadashi with the tithi's start and end times, so you can see a two-day tithi and decide with your family's tradition.
Four steps to the dates
Step 1: Allow your location, or pick a city
The sunrise rule needs your place. Cities an hour apart in sunrise can differ by a day when a tithi begins near dawn.
Step 2: Read the list
Every Ekadashi for the next twelve months, with the weekday, the lunar month and paksha, and when the tithi starts and ends.
Step 3: Check a close call
When the tithi begins within an hour of sunrise, the row says so; that is the day different panchangs may disagree on.
Step 4: Add it to your calendar
Copy the dates, or download the whole list as a calendar file that opens in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook.
Worth knowing before you read it
Why the date moves
A lunar month is 29½ days, so any tithi comes about eleven days earlier each solar month and the same festival lands on a different date every year.
The sunrise rule
The tithi at sunrise names the day. Sunrise is computed for your place; for the whole of India it varies by more than an hour east to west.
Smarta and Vaishnava
For Ekadashi, when the tithi overlaps dawn on two days, Smarta households often keep the first day and Vaishnava (ISKCON) households the second. The start and end times let you apply your own rule.
Made for your city
A list printed for one city is right for that city. This one is recomputed for wherever you are, which is the only way to be right everywhere.
Computed, not looked up — in your browser
Positions come from published astronomy (Meeus and the JPL orbital elements), the ayanamsa is Lahiri, the houses whole-sign, and the same code runs in the Jyotish app. Your birth details and location are used by your own browser and never sent, and no language model reads or writes your chart. Switch the page to another language and only its fixed text goes to our translation service; your result stays in English, in your browser.

Questions people ask
Anything we've missed?
When is the next Ekadashi?
The first row of the list above is the next Ekadashi at your location, with the tithi's start and end. The list is computed when the page loads, so it is always the next twelve months from today.
Why does my calendar show Ekadashi on a different day?
Almost always because it was made for a different city, or because the tithi began just after sunrise where you are. Look at the start time in the row: if it is within an hour of sunrise, the two calendars are applying the same rule to different sunrises.
Why does this panchang differ from my printed one by a day?
Usually the sunrise rule. A tithi named for a day is the one running at sunrise at your place, and a tithi that begins just after sunrise is named for the next day. Check the end time shown under each element. Printed panchangs are also computed for one city; this one is computed for yours.
Is the panchang sent anywhere?
Your location, if you allow it, is used by your own browser to compute sunrise and the day's elements, and it is never sent. Choose a city instead if you prefer not to share it. If you switch the page to another language, only the page's fixed text is translated; the panchang for your place stays in English.

How Ekadashi dates are decided: the sunrise rule, and why Smarta and Vaishnava sometimes differ
Ekadashi is the 11th tithi, kept on the day it is running at sunrise. When it straddles two dawns, Smarta and Vaishnava households may fast on different days.

What is a tithi? Why Hindu festival dates move every year
A tithi is a lunar day: the time the Moon takes to move 12° from the Sun. Thirty make a lunar month, they last 19–26 hours, and they make festival dates shift.
