This year, Ramadan falls between mid-February and mid-March. Here’s when the fast can be broken on the 29th day, this Wednesday, March 18, 2026, in France.

What time can the fast be broken on this 29th day of Ramadan 2026? Each year, during this sacred month of the Islamic lunar calendar, Muslims observe fasting from dawn to sunset. Throughout the day, practitioners refrain from eating, drinking, and engaging in intimate relations.

The times for prayers—and, by extension, the moments to begin and break the fast—shift daily in sync with the sun. Consequently, iftar (or f tourism) occurs a few minutes later each day. Depending on the season, the length of the fasting day can stretch longer or become shorter. Fasting starts at dawn, marked by the Fajr prayer, and ends at sunset with the fourth daily prayer, the Maghrib prayer.

This year, Ramadan 2026 takes place after the winter solstice, meaning the days are getting longer. Consequently, the daily fasting hours extend as the holy month progresses. So, what are the planned times for the beginning and breaking of the fast on March 18, 2026? On the 29th day of Ramadan, fasting ends at 6:57 PM.
