Planning a trip for 11 July 2029
- A partial eclipse is a local event, not a trip. Watch from home with eclipse glasses or a pinhole projector if you are in the visibility zone.
- Coverage matters: below about 50% most people won’t notice any dimming without a filter.

Questions
What time is the 11 July 2029 solar eclipse?
Greatest eclipse is at 15:36 UT (Universal Time). Local times differ by place: use the calculator on this page for your location.
Is the 11 July 2029 eclipse total?
No. It is a partial eclipse everywhere: the Moon’s central shadow misses Earth, so the Sun is at most 23% covered by diameter (magnitude 0.2304) for observers in the best-placed region.
How long does it last?
At a single place the partial phases last roughly one to two hours, depending on how central the eclipse is for you.
Do I need eclipse glasses?
Yes, the whole time. Even at maximum part of the Sun’s surface stays uncovered, which is enough to damage your eyes. Use ISO 12312-2 eclipse glasses or a pinhole projector.
