Longest and shortest day in Edmonton

The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 17h 2m of daylight.

The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 7h 27m.

Between them the day length swings by 9h 35m.

Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 4:13 pm on 13 December; the latest is 10:07 pm on 24 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 5:03 am on 17 June to 8:50 am on 29 December.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 16m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Edmonton different

On standard time the sun peaks at 13:25, 85 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

Light lingers for 35 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 11 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 53.6°N buys you.

The shallow approach angle at 53.6° stretches this evening's golden hour to 68 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Summer and winter days differ by 9h 35m here, more seasonal variation than almost anywhere else in Canada we track.

The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 84° round to NW. Tonight, W.

By the end of September the sun will be setting 71 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 2 minutes a day.

Expect a one-off hour-long step in these times on 1 November 2026: sunset goes from 6:02 pm the evening before to 6:00 pm that evening.

At 668 m the horizon sits 0.89° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 6 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 12 minutes of extra daylight across the day.

Planning a sunset photo in Edmonton

Arrive by 6:23 pm. Golden hour opens at 6:38 pm and the sun is down by 7:24 pm, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 269° 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 7:45 pm and runs to 7:59 pm, the end of civil twilight and 34m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
