Shabbat Times in Vancouver

For Friday 2026-08-21

Halachic note

Vancouver 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.

Vancouver is home to a vibrant Jewish community of 30,000, centered in the Oakridge and Richmond neighborhoods. The city offers robust Shabbat infrastructure, including an eruv, kosher food certified by BC Kosher, and a welcoming network of Orthodox and Chabad synagogues.
