Golden hour in Stockholm in November

Stockholm lies at 59.33° N, in the high latitudes, where summer evenings stretch and winter days are brief. Its longest measured day falls on Thu 18 June 2026 with 18h 37m of daylight, and its shortest on Sat 19 December 2026 with 6h 05m — a difference of 12h 32m between the two extremes.

Evening golden hour in Stockholm runs for roughly 76 minutes at the height of summer, 54 minutes around the March equinox and 112 minutes at midwinter. The warm window is actually widest in the colder months, which makes winter evenings unusually forgiving here.

The sun sets toward 324° NW in late June and toward 221° SW in late December, a shift of about 103° in where the last light lands — worth checking before committing to a west-facing viewpoint. In Stockholm, around midsummer the sky never reaches full darkness — evening blue hour runs into morning twilight.
