Shabbat Times in State of Rio de Janeiro

For Friday 2026-10-09

Halachic note

State of Rio de Janeiro 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.

Rio de Janeiro is home to a vibrant Jewish community of 25,000-30,000, centered in Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon. For Shabbat, visitors can find numerous synagogues, kosher food options, and an eruv in these neighborhoods, offering a seamless observant experience.
