Yes. According to the Tora days are counted from evening to evening because the first days of creation started from evening as it is said "ויהי ערב ויהי בוקר יום אחד" (And there was evening and there was morning, one day", Genesis 1:5).
Please note the "night" which is the end of Shabbat is considered the time in which you can see at least three stars. This time changes from place to place. Another note is that it is custom and Mitzva (religious law) to welcome Shabbat a few minutes before sunset so we will add from secular upon holy (להוסיף מחול על קודש).
To see exact time of Shabbat in different places please see attached link.

∙ 14y agoThis is a bit like asking "Where does September, or Thursday, take place ?" .
Shabbat takes place all over the earth, and presumably throughout all of Creation. Jews who travel for a living observe it wherever they happen to be when Friday evening arrives. A Jew who is within reach of his home on Friday evening, observes it either alone or with his family and community, in his home and his synagogue.
