Technically, that will depend on where you're located in your time zone,
but it's going to be within a week either side of February 11.

Also by the way ... since the change is about 4 minutes earlier per day,
it might not be exactly 8 PM. The transit closest to 8 PM could be any time
within about 2 minutes of 8 PM either way ... and then 4 minutes earlier on
the next night.

The Moon crosses the local meridian at its highest point in the sky, which occurs roughly around the time it is full.

To determine the exact time for a specific date, you can refer to a lunar calendar or an astronomical almanac.
