Longest and shortest day in Volgograd
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 3 months ago, with 16h 9m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 3 months, with 8h 15m.
Between them the day length swings by 7h 53m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:05 on 11 December; the latest is 20:08 on 25 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 03:58 on 16 June to 07:54 on 1 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 14m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Volgograd different
Light lingers for 31 minutes after sunset before civil twilight ends — 7 minutes longer than the 24-minute median across tracked cities, which is what 48.7°N buys you.
The shallow approach angle at 48.7° stretches this evening's golden hour to 61 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.
Summer and winter days differ by 7h 53m here, less seasonal variation than almost anywhere else in Russia we track.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it SW, June swings it 74° round to NW. Tonight, W.
By the end of September the sun will be setting 61 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 2 minutes a day.
Planning a sunset photo in Volgograd
Arrive by 16:55. Golden hour opens at 17:10 and the sun is down by 17:52, 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 18:11 and runs to 18:23, the end of civil twilight and 31m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
