Longest day in Zoetermeer

The longest day of the year is the day on which the time between sunrise and sunset is longest. This year, the longest day begins at 5:20 a.m. at sunrise and ends at 10:04 p.m. at sunset (source: KNMI). That means that on Wednesday 21 June it will be light for 16 hours and 44 minutes this year.

A few more facts:

  • The longest day coincides with the beginning of astronomical summer. This starts in the Netherlands on June 21 at 4:57 p.m. That is when the sun is highest in the sky.
  • The longest day of the year is followed by the shortest night of the year. In the night from Wednesday to Thursday it will be dark for 7 hours and 16 minutes.
  • The longest day of the year does not always fall on June 21, but can sometimes also fall on June 20 or 22.
