Tithi: Bhadra Shukla Ekadashi. Households (Smarta) keep the day Ekadashi stands at sunrise in Nepal, and Vaishnavas the last day it stands at dawn. Where the two differ, Nepal's patro gives both days.
See this day on the patroWhat Hariparivartini Ekadashi is
Hariparivartini Ekadashi is the eleventh day of the bright fortnight of Bhadra, the middle of Chaturmas. Lord Vishnu, asleep since Harishayani Ekadashi, turns onto his other side on this day. Vaman Dwadashi, the day of his dwarf form, follows it.
How families keep it
Those who keep the fast eat no grain or pulses that day; many take only fruit, milk and roots, and some take nothing at all. Lord Vishnu is worshipped with tulsi leaves, and the fast is broken the next morning, on Dwadashi.

Each date is the day Nepal keeps the festival. Nepal publishes its patro one year at a time, so a date further ahead can move by a day when that year's patro comes out. For a ceremony, Pandit Ji confirms the day and the muhurta.
