Summer solstice 2026 overview
The summer solstice, occurring on June 21 in the Northern Hemisphere, marks the longest day and the start of summer, when the Earth's tilt toward the sun causes extended daylight hours. This event coincides with Father's Day in the United States and is celebrated worldwide, notably at sites like Stonehenge, where ancient structures align with the sun. The solstice results from the Earth's 23.5-degree axial tilt, leading to varying daylight lengths across the globe.
