This page lists every full moon date in 2043. Full moon occurs when Earth sits roughly between the Sun and Moon, so the near side is fully illuminated—about 100% lit as seen from Earth.
Using the 2043 full moon list
Open any date to load that day’s moon phase page for your city, including illumination, moon age, and approximate moonrise/moonset. Full moons often rise near sunset, which photographers and event planners use for golden-hour planning.
Lunar eclipses can only happen near full moon. Pair this list with eclipse news from trusted observatories when a penumbral or total eclipse is expected in 2043.

Frequently asked questions
How many full moons are in 2043?
Most years have twelve full moons; some have thirteen when a blue moon falls in the calendar year. This page lists every full moon date computed for 2043.
What time is the full moon exact?
The exact instant of full moon is a specific UTC moment when phase angle is nearest 180°. Calendar lists often show the local calendar date of that event. Open a date for city-based rise and set context around that night.
Do full moons always rise at sunset?
Often approximately, but not exactly—latitude, longitude, and the Moon’s path shift rise times. Use the today view with your city for moonrise and moonset on a chosen full moon date.
Where can I see other phases?
The moon phases hub covers all eight phases, next major quarters, and a monthly preview. Phase spoke pages list upcoming dates for new moon, quarters, crescents, and gibbous moons.
