When is the next Ekadashi in 2026?

The upcoming fast is highlighted in the list below, with its parana window for the morning after. Ekadashi recurs roughly every 14 to 15 days.

Why do these 2026 dates differ from an Indian calendar?

The fasting day is the day whose local sunrise falls inside Ekadashi tithi. Sunrise outside India happens many hours later, so the date can shift by a day. Every date here is recomputed for the city you selected.

What is the parana time for each fast?

Parana is taken the next morning after sunrise, inside Dwadashi and after Hari Vasara has passed. Each entry lists that window in your local clock time.
