Current time in Koudougou, Burkina Faso right now
It is 11:42 pm in Koudougou, Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 right now, on Saturday, September 26, 2026. The city keeps Africa/Ouagadougou, which is GMT at UTC+0, so Koudougou is on UTC itself, where it is 11:42 pm. The sun rose in Koudougou at 5:59 am and sets at 6:03 pm, which is 12 hours 4 minutes of daylight.
What time is it in Koudougou right now?
The time in Koudougou, Burkina Faso is 11:42 pm, 23:42 on a 24 hour clock, on Saturday September 26, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the Africa/Ouagadougou rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.
Koudougou sits at 12.25 degrees north and 2.37 degrees west, inside the tropics, north of the equator and 1,362 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 0.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 2.4 degrees west of that line. Those 2.4 degrees are worth 9 minutes 28 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 12:01 pm rather than on the stroke of twelve.
Koudougou time zone and UTC offset
The IANA zone for Koudougou, Burkina Faso is Africa/Ouagadougou. Right now it is running at UTC+0 and the abbreviation in force is GMT. Koudougou does not change its clocks at any point in the year. The offset stays at UTC+0 in January and in July alike, so no conversion involving Koudougou ever needs a seasonal footnote.
Daylight hours in Koudougou today

Time difference between Koudougou and major cities

Moon phase over Koudougou tonight
The moon is a waning gibbous tonight, 15.8 days into its cycle and about 99% lit. The next full moon falls on October 26, 2026 at 4:11 am Ouagadougou time, and the next new moon on October 10, 2026 at 3:49 pm. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Koudougou clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Koudougou
There is no clock change scheduled in Africa/Ouagadougou within the next 400 days, so Koudougou stays at UTC+0 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Koudougou an easy city to schedule against: a meeting fixed at a given hour here holds its relationship to UTC all year, and only the other end of the call can move.

The antipode of Koudougou
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Koudougou, Burkina Faso and you come out at 12.25 degrees south, 177.63 degrees east. That point is near Suva, Fiji. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Suva, Fiji, 659 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 11:42 am on Sunday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 12.25 degrees north becomes 12.25 degrees south, and 2.37 degrees west becomes 177.63 degrees east. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Koudougou is one of the exceptions, with dry land on the far side. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC+12, roughly twelve hours from Koudougou, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Koudougou
Today the sun rises in Koudougou at 5:59 am and sets at 6:03 pm, giving 12 hours 4 minutes of daylight.

Sun and moon in Koudougou today
The sun is up in Koudougou for 12 hours 4 minutes today, from 5:59 am to 6:03 pm. The moon sets in Koudougou at 5:36 am and comes up again at 5:55 pm. The next phase is the full moon on September 26, 2026. The moon is full, or as near to it as makes no difference, and the whole of the face turned towards us is lit.
| Sun | Time in Koudougou |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 4:48 am |
| Nautical dawn | 5:13 am |
| Civil dawn | 5:37 am |
| Sunrise | 5:59 am |
| Solar noon | 12:01 pm |
| Sunset | 6:03 pm |
| Civil dusk | 6:24 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 6:49 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 7:13 pm |
Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.
| Light band | Time in Koudougou | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 5:37 am to 5:46 am | 0h 08m |
| Morning golden hour | 5:46 am to 6:27 am | 0h 41m |
| Evening golden hour | 5:35 pm to 6:16 pm | 0h 41m |
| Evening blue hour | 6:16 pm to 6:24 pm | 0h 08m |
Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.
| Moon | Reading in Koudougou |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 5:55 pm |
| Moonset | 5:36 am |
| Phase | waning gibbous, waxing |
| Illumination | 100% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 15.4 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 380,200 km |
Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

No hour on Saturday, September 26, 2026 is inside 9 to 5 in all 5 places, so nothing is highlighted as a shared working hour. Los Angeles and Delhi are 12 hours 30 minutes apart, which is more than the eight hour working day leaves room for. The closest is 3 of 5: from 9:00 am in Koudougou it is working hours in Koudougou, London and Delhi, but outside them in Los Angeles and New York. A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Koudougou
Seven days from September 26, 2026, computed for Koudougou, Burkina Faso at 12.25 degrees north, 2.37 degrees west, on the clock of Africa/Ouagadougou. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.
| Date | Fajr | Sunrise | Dhuhr | Asr | Maghrib | Isha |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saturday September 26 | 4:48 am | 5:59 am | 12:01 pm | 3:20 pm | 6:03 pm | 7:09 pm |

Dhuhr is solar noon at Koudougou, Burkina Faso, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.
Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.
Qibla direction from Koudougou
From Koudougou, Burkina Faso the qibla is 71.4 degrees on a true compass, which is east-northeast, or 18.6 degrees north of due east. The Kaaba is 4,590 km away, 2,852 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Koudougou, Burkina Faso to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.
The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Koudougou, Burkina Faso before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.

A live clock showing the current time in Koudougou, Burkina Faso, ready to paste into any page that accepts HTML. It reads Africa/Ouagadougou from the time zone database, so it stays right when Koudougou changes its clocks, and it shows GMT to every visitor wherever they are reading from. It is a plain iframe: no account, no script to install, nothing to pay.
The box needs 183 pixels of height for these settings, which is what the code above sets, and the numbers show at full size from 305 pixels of width up. Narrower than that they scale down rather than wrapping, and turning a line off makes the box shorter. The code updates with either.
