Yom Kippur: the Neilah Service
On Yom Kippur, the last service of all-day praying is the Neilah Service which ends with the Shofar sounding. One should blow the Shofar the sounds tekiah, shevarim teruah, tekiah, although there are authorities who say that one should blow just one tekiah. The Shofar should be sounded after the cantor has said the Kaddish following the Neilah prayer. Some localities have adopted the practice of having the Shofar sounded after the Kaddish prayer. (Shulchan Aruch 623:12)
See Arthur L. Finkle, Easy Guide for Sofat Sounding, Torah Aura, LA, 2002
The blowing of the Shofar signifies the end of Yom Kippur, and after it the prayer 'Leshana Habaa Beyrushalayim' (Next year in Jerusalem) is recited aloud in song.
In terms of the actual time, it depends on your particular location. In New York, for example, it was at 19:55 on Saturday evening September 14, 2013.
