Moon phases in February 2027
In February 2027 the full moon falls on 20 February at 23:24 UTC, and the new moon on 6 February. Every night of the month with its phase and how much of the Moon is lit, computed from the same engine the rest of the site runs on.
The exact moments
- New Moon
- First Quarter
- Full Moon
- Last Quarter
Times are UTC. A phase is a moment, not a night: the Moon is “full” at one instant, and looks full for a day either side of it. The live calendar works these out for your own clock and, if you let it, your own horizon.
