It differs from place to place: In Dublin it will start on the 14th this year.

Is it a consolation to let you know that the evenings will begin to get brighter on the 13th December (in London anyway)?

We just started setting things up for next year yesterday. The earliest sunset will be on the 13th December, at 16:05:43.

And the Grand Auld Sthretch in the evenings will be a total of 2 seconds long on the 14th! kicking off the 2026 season.
