Longest and shortest day in Stockholm
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 18h 37m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 4 months, with 6h 4m.
Between them the day length swings by 12h 32m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 14:46 on 16 December; the latest is 22:08 on 23 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 03:30 on 19 June to 08:45 on 27 December.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 21m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Stockholm different
From sunset to full civil darkness is 46 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 59.3°N accounts for the 22-minute difference.
Evening golden hour runs 83 minutes today. On the equator the same window lasts about 41 — at 59.3° the sun approaches the horizon at a shallower angle and takes its time.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 103° round to NW. Tonight, WNW.
Across August the sunset moves 81 minutes earlier, averaging about 3 minutes a day.
On 25 October 2026 the local clock shifts back an hour and sunset lands at 16:13 instead of 17:15. Worth knowing if you are planning a shoot that week.
Planning a sunset photo in Stockholm
Arrive by 18:59. Golden hour opens at 19:14 and the sun is down by 20:10, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 293° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 20:37 and runs to 20:55, the end of civil twilight and 45m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
