Most festivals follow the Hindu lunar calendar (panchang), so the date depends on when the tithi prevails at sunrise or at the time of the main ritual. These dates are computed for a central Indian reference location; some festivals can be observed a day earlier or later depending on your city and family tradition. Check the panchang for your city to confirm.
