By day 15, on Monday 22 February, imsak has moved to 05:10 and iftar to 17:38, so the fast lasts 12 hours 28 minutes.

What the Bristol timetable shows from imsak to isha and how it compares with London
The timetable also lists fajr, sunrise and isha: on day 1 fajr is at 05:44, sunrise at 07:37 and isha at 18:59, while on day 29 isha has moved to 19:47. Compared with London, iftar in Bristol on day 1 comes 10 minutes later than in London, at 17:12 against 17:02. By day 29 Bristol is 9 minutes behind London, with iftar at 18:02 compared with 17:53.
Over the month the fast in Bristol grows by 104 minutes between day 1 and day 29: imsak comes 54 minutes earlier and iftar 50 minutes later. The change is steady rather than sudden, so you will feel the days lengthen week by week as the Bristol sunset moves from 17:12 toward 18:02. Sunrise follows the same rhythm, shifting from 07:37 on day 1 to 07:11 on day 15 and 06:41 on day 29, while isha moves from 18:59 to 19:23 and then 19:47, which also pushes tarawih later into the evening.
Why the Bristol mosque calendar matters
The times for Bristol come from the Muslim World League method, which takes 18 degrees for fajr and 17 degrees for isha and subtracts ten minutes from fajr to obtain imsak. Not every Bristol mosque uses those angles, and some apply a margin of their own. Bristol's mosques serve communities with different traditions, and calendars may differ by a day. Follow one consistently and compare its imsak with the 05:34 calculated for Bristol on day 1. The first day of Ramadan 1448 is predicted for Monday 8 February 2027; the moon sighting will settle it.
Ramadan in Bristol: weather, daily life and iftar
Bristol lies where the River Avon runs toward the Severn Estuary in the south west of England, which makes winters milder and wetter than in the north. In February and early March expect rain, mild spells and a breezy harbour, with sunrise at 07:37 on day 1. The Clifton Suspension Bridge and the floating harbour look their best in the clear, cold evenings.
Daily life and iftar in Bristol
Bristol is a lively university and creative city, with students from the University of Bristol and the University of the West of England alongside port, aerospace and office workers. Fasting often means a long commute by bus or bike through hilly streets. Many families gather for iftar at home, while students organise shared meals after a day on campus.
Iftar tables in Bristol usually start with dates and water, then soup and a hot dish suited to the damp. Bristol neighbours frequently swap dishes across the garden wall. Worshippers should look for the first tarawih on Sunday evening, 7 February, and for the 27th night after sunset on Friday 5 March.
Practical advice for fasting in Bristol
Practical advice is simple. Bristol's hills and drizzle make cycling tiring on a fast, so take the bus if the weather turns, keep a waterproof layer in your bag, and plan the late afternoon so you are home by sunset. Treat sleep as seriously as the meals and go to bed soon after tarawih. On day 15 the fast in Bristol lasts 12 hours 28 minutes, which is long enough to reward some planning of meals and appointments. Eid al-Fitr would arrive on Tuesday 9 March 2027 after 29 fasts and on Wednesday 10 March after 30.
- Take the bus rather than cycling uphill in the rain.
- Carry a waterproof layer on every outing.
- Eat a filling meal before imsak.
- Stick to a single mosque calendar.

Is Eid a day off, and how do I manage work or school in Bristol?
Is Eid a day off, and how do I manage work or study in Bristol? In Bristol, employers and universities do not change hours for Ramadan, so ask early about a shorter lunch to leave at sunset. Eid is not a bank holiday, so book the morning off in advance if you want to join the prayer. Friday 5 March, in the evening, is when the 27th night is expected, so organise your time early for a last ten nights of longer prayers and shorter sleep.
