It depends on what you mean exactly. If you are talking about it as one of the four solstice's, then you could say either it lasts three months or if you mean the day itself then you would have to say 24 hours. It is more of a astrological transition so it really doesn't "last" at all; it is just a marker of the season.

How long does each season last?

The four moments that define the beginnings and end points of the seasons are the solstices and the equinoxes. If the last one of these that passed is a solstice, then the season you are in ends at the next equinox. If the last one of these that passed is an equinox, the season you are in will end at the next solstice. Seasons are about 3 months long, but for various reasons they are not precisely equal in length.

When are solstices and equinoxes each year?

Two equinoxes (from the word 'equal') occur each year: one in the Spring, called the vernal equinox from a word for green-ness, and also the autumnal equinox in the Fall. On the day and hour of the equinoxes, days and nights are the same length of time.


When in the year are days longest?

The first day of summer (on or about June 21 in the Northern Hermisphere) is the longest day of the year, meaning the most hours of sunlight. From there, each day is a little bit shorter until you come to the shortest day, the first day of winter (on or about December 21). Then they start getting longer again. The first day of summer is called the Summer Solstice, and the first day of winter is called the Winter Solstice.
