Summer Solstice 2026 - Sun

The sun's bright light is visible through the leaves and fruit of the trees as twilight gradually sets in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on June 21, 2026, the day of the Summer Solstice. June 21 marks the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, the longest day of the year in 2026, with the most daylight. This event occurs when the Earth's North Pole tilts closest to the Sun, resulting in up to 14 hours of daylight in India, where the Sun is directly overhead at the Tropic of Cancer. With the Northern Hemisphere angled most directly toward the Sun, it experiences the most daylight hours and the shortest nights. After this date, days will gradually become shorter and nights longer.
