Shabbat Times in Pennsylvania

For Friday 2026-08-21

Halachic note

Pennsylvania follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.

Pennsylvania hosts a large and historic Jewish population centered in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. These communities offer robust infrastructure for Shabbat observance, including numerous synagogues, established eruvin, and a wide array of kosher dining options for locals and visitors.
