The longest day of the year, known as the summer solstice, typically falls on June 21 or 22 in the Northern Hemisphere. However, the exact date can vary slightly each year due to the Earth's elliptical orbit and leap years. In the Southern Hemisphere, the longest day occurs around December 21 or 22. Thus, while it usually happens around the same dates, it is not always on the exact same day each year.
Yes. Longest day of the year in one hemisphere, and shortest day of the year in the other hemisphere. So our summer solstice on June 21 is the longest day in Europe or America, but the shortest day for the Australians.
But they are on the same day every year, for example mine is always on the 17th day of the month.
No. Christmas Day and New Year's Day are never on the same day in the same year. Christmas Day is always one day in the week later. New Year's Day in 2025 will be on a Wednesday and Christmas Day will be on a Thursday. A week after that, New Year's Day of 2026 will be on a Thursday. It is the Christmas Day of one year and the New Year's Day of the next year that are always on the same day of the week.
The first day of summer is the longest day in the northern hemisphere. The first day of winter is the shortest.
No, Easter is not always celebrated on the same day each year. It falls on a different date each year because it is based on the lunar calendar.

An equinox is not the shortest day. It has the same amount of daylight and darkness. The solstices have the longest and shortest days. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year in terms of the amount of daylight.
Oh, dude, Christmas Day and New Year's Day fall in the same year every year. I mean, it's not like they're gonna skip a year and be like, "Nah, we're gonna take a break this time." So, yeah, they're always in the same year. Like, every year.
New Year's Day and Christmas Day of the same year never fall on the same day. The 1st of January 1945 was on a Monday and the 25th of December 1945 was on a Tuesday. That is completely normal. A week after Christmas Day is New Year's Day, but that is New Year's Day of the following year. So Christmas Day 1945 would have been on the same day of the week as New Year's Day 1946, the next year. In the same way, Christmas Day 1944 and New Year's Day 1945 were on the same day of the week.
