<P> Evening is the period of time at the end of the day , usually from about 6pm to bedtime . It is a daily astronomic event of variable time period between daytime and night , and the period in which the daylight is decreasing , after the afternoon and before night . There is no exact time for when evening begins and ends ( equally true with night ) . Though the term is subjective , evening is typically understood to begin shortly before sunset and during twilight ( sunset and twilight vary throughout the year ) , lasting until night -- typically astronomical sunset . There can be no precise definition in terms of clock time , but it is socially considered to start around 6 pm. and to last until nighttime or bedtime . </P>
