December 20 or 21st.
While June 21or 22 is called the summer solstice and longest day in the Northern Hemisphere, it is called the winter solstice and shortest day in the Southern Hemisphere.
In December the situation is reversed, because the Earth is now tilted away from the earth (if we consider the North Pole to be at the top!). Consequently the Southern Hemisphere is nearer to the sun in December, and the season is called summer or summer time, with longer hours of sun than winter time, and with barbecues and bikinis on the beach on Christmas Day.
The precise astronomical moment of summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere occurs around December 20/21, but December 21st is traditionally the day identified as the longest day.
