summer solstice. Longest day of the year (in the northern hemisphere) Inmost places in the northern hemisphere the longest day of the year is not in fact 21st June.

For simplicity we usually refer to the 21st of June as being the longest day, but sometimes it can actually be on the 20th of June or on the 22nd of June. For simplicity: For the northern hemisphere = Yes For the southern hemisphere = No
