divider

Watch the winter solstice live from Stonehenge, wherever you are in the world, with our FREE coverage. This year, English Heritage are streaming both sunrise and sunset for Winter Solstice, for *free* from Stonehenge. Sunset is at 16:01 GMT on Sunday 20th December. Sunrise is at 08:09 GMT on Monday 21st December. We'll be live for about 45 minutes before and after. Our live stream is absolutely free. We will never ask for your credit card details. Always look for the Blue Tick next to the official English Heritage account's name.
Here are two YouTube links for both the sunset and the sunrise:

EXPERIENCE STONEHENGE

Visit one of the most impressive wonders of the world. See the story of Stonehenge and our prehistoric ancestors brought to life through the world-class visitor centre.

HADRIAN'S WALL

Discover Roman life along Hadrian's Wall, an epic World Heritage Site marching 73 miles across some of the wildest and most dramatic country in England.

DOVER CASTLE

The most iconic of all English fortresses commanding the gateway to the realm for nine centuries. Climb the Great Tower, meet the characters and immerse yourself in vivid medieval interiors.

ELTHAM PALACE & GARDENS

Experience the decade of decadence at Eltham Palace as you are transported back to the 1930s (just in time for cocktail hour!). Created for millionaires Stephen and Virginia Courtauld, Eltham Palace is part showpiece of Art Deco design and 1930s cutting-edge technology, and part medieval royal palace.

TINTAGEL CASTLE

Immerse yourself in history, myths and stunning scenery at Tintagel Castle, set high on Cornwall's rugged north coast between Padstow and Bude. Inextricably linked with the legend of King Arthur, for centuries this dramatic castle and coastline has fired the imaginations of writers, artists and even the brother of a king.

Clifford's Tower

The stunning panoramic views over Old York from the top of Clifford’s Tower, make it the ideal starting point for any visit to the city. There’s plenty to discover at this imposing tower standing proud on its high mound. It is almost all that remains of York Castle built by William the Conqueror, and has served as a prison and a royal mint in its time.

Summer Solstice at Stonehenge 2020

Stonehenge has been a place of worship and celebration at the time of Summer Solstice for thousands of years. We may not be able to welcome people in person this year but we'll be bringing this special occasion to you live at home. We'll be live streaming the sunset and sunrise to make sure you don't miss a moment. Join us for sunset at 21:26pm on 20 June and sunrise at 04:52am on 21 June.
