The "longest day" is the day of the Summer Solstice, which is generally June 21 in the northern hemisphere or December 21 in the Southern Hemisphere. (These dates can fluctuate a day either way, depending on the sequence of leap years.)

You can see the date and time of the solstices for any year on the US Naval Observatory's web site on the "Earth's Seasons" page at the link below.

What event signals the beginning summer?

It should be remembered that the seasons are diametrically opposed in the hemispheres. When it is summer in the northern hemisphere it is winter in the southern one. Seasons officially start and end on the solstices and equinoxes. The solstices are the days on which daylight or night time are the longest. When the day is longest in the northern hemisphere night is longest in the southern. The equinoxes are when day time and night time are equal which varies depending on your latitude. (Except at the equator)
