Calculated with Astronomy Engine, an open-source library verified against the US Naval Observatory and NASA JPL. How we calculate

In an annular eclipse the Moon is a little too far from the Earth to cover the Sun completely. Inside a narrow path a bright ring of sunlight stays around the Moon, the “ring of fire”; the sky does not get dark. A much larger region sees a partial eclipse.

Where the eclipse can be seen

The shading shows how much of the Sun the Moon covers at its maximum at each place. The dark band is the approximate path of annularity. Calculated on a one-degree grid; use the table and the calculator for exact times.
