Sunrise Sunset Calendar
This sunrise sunset calendar lists the time of sunrise and sunset for every day of the year at any place on Earth, with civil dawn, civil dusk, solar noon and the length of the day. Pick one of 32 cities or type a latitude and longitude, choose the time zone, and see the whole year as a classic sunrise and sunset table or one month at a time. Print it as a PDF on US Letter or A4, download the times as a CSV for a spreadsheet, or add sunrise and sunset to your calendar app with the .ics file. The times are worked out in your browser with the NOAA solar calculator equations and agree to within a minute with the US Naval Observatory for every time we checked, including the midnight sun and polar night above the Arctic Circle.

Everything runs in your browser: the times are calculated on your device, and only your settings are remembered in this browser. Sunrise, sunset and civil twilight use the NOAA solar calculator equations (after Jean Meeus) with the standard 0.833° allowance for refraction and the Sun’s radius, and agree to within a minute with the US Naval Observatory for the places we checked; NOAA notes that beyond about 72° north or south the error can reach 10 minutes. Local times use the time-zone data in your browser. Hills, buildings and the weather change what you actually see. PDF export uses jsPDF and svg2pdf.js (MIT licence).

How the times are worked out
The tool uses the equations behind the NOAA Global Monitoring Laboratory solar calculator (after Jean Meeus, Astronomical Algorithms) to find the Sun’s declination and the equation of time, then the moment the Sun’s centre is 0.833° below the horizon (sunrise and sunset, allowing for refraction and the Sun’s radius) or 6° below (civil twilight). Each time is refined at its own moment and rounded to the minute. Checked against the US Naval Observatory for four places on 129 days of 2027: all 521 times are within one minute.

What time is sunrise and sunset in New York in 2027?
It changes every day: on 1 January 2027 the sun rises at 7:20 am and sets at 4:39 pm; on 15 June at 5:24 am and 8:29 pm (US Eastern time). The tool lists every day of the year.
When is the longest day of 2027?
In the northern hemisphere it is 21 June 2027, the June solstice: New York gets 15 h 06 m of daylight and London 16 h 38 m. In the southern hemisphere it is around 22 December (Sydney: 14 h 25 m).
Why is the earliest sunset not on the shortest day?
Because solar noon drifts later through December (the equation of time). In New York the earliest sunset of 2027 is on 6 December at 4:28 pm, two weeks before the shortest day on 21 December.
What is civil twilight?
The time when the centre of the Sun is less than 6° below the horizon: there is usually enough light to be outside without lamps. Civil dawn is when it begins before sunrise; civil dusk is when it ends after sunset.
How accurate are the times?
We checked the calculation against the US Naval Observatory for New York, Sydney, Reykjavík and Tromsø on 129 days of 2027: all 521 sunrise, sunset, twilight and solar noon times are within one minute, and the polar day and polar night dates match. Hills, buildings and the weather change what you actually see.
What happens in the Arctic in summer and winter?
North of the Arctic Circle the sun can stay up all day or down all day. In Tromsø, Norway, the sun does not set from 19 May to 25 July 2027 (68 days) and does not rise from 28 November; the calendar shows those days as “Sun up all day” and “Sun down all day”.
Which years and places can I use?
Any year from 1900 to 2100 and any latitude and longitude. Pick a time zone so the times follow the local clock, including daylight saving time.
Can I add sunrise and sunset to my calendar?
Yes. Download the .ics file: each day gets a sunrise event and a sunset event at the exact time, which your calendar app shows in its own time zone.
Is my information uploaded?
No. Everything is worked out in this browser, and the files you download are made on your device.
