Shabbat Times in Philadelphia

For Friday 2026-08-21

Halachic note

Philadelphia 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.

Philadelphia boasts a large, historic Jewish community with vibrant Orthodox life centered in the Main Line suburbs and Center City. Visitors will find robust infrastructure for Shabbat observance, including multiple eruvin, kosher food options, and a wide array of synagogues.
