In the northern hemisphere, the longest day of the year is 21st June and the shortest day is 22nd December. The exact date can vary by a day or so.

In the northern hemisphere, the summer solstice is generally June 21, and the winter solstice is December 21. (Reverse these for the southern hemisphere.)
