When Is Ramadan & Eid 2027? Dates, Calendar & What to Expect
Planning ahead for Ramadan? Here are the expected 2027 dates and what to keep in mind.
Expected dates (2027)
- Ramadan 2027: expected to begin around Monday, 8 February 2027.
- Eid-ul-Fitr 2027: expected around 9–10 March 2027.
These are estimates. The Islamic calendar is lunar, so the exact start depends on the sighting of the new moon and can shift by a day either way, and vary slightly by region.
Why it moves each year
The lunar year is about 10–11 days shorter than the solar year, so Ramadan arrives earlier each year. In 2027 it falls roughly ten days earlier than in 2026.
What this means for you
- Plan earlier than last year. Everything — groceries, gifts, outfits — needs to be ready by late January.
- Order personalised gifts ahead. Ramadan gifts and hampers need lead time.
