Solution 1

Check this[^] out.
Once you have the DateTime value from the calendar control you just need to get the .DayOfWeek property (0-6) and convert it to a literal day. Apply that to your label and you are done.

protected void Calendar1_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DateTime SelectedDeate = Calendar1.SelectedDate;
Label1.Text = SelectedDeate.DayOfWeek.ToString();
}
