Sunrise at the South Pole is on about the 21st of September every year. Sunset is on about the 22nd of March the following year. The reverse is the case at the North Pole. So a polar day is about 6 months and a polar night is also about 6 months.

All of Antarctica is south of 66 degrees S -- the Antarctic Circle. The circle marks the latitude beyond which there is at least one 24 hour period of no sunrise/ sunset per year.

Antarctica is found between 60 degrees and 90 degrees S. This means that depending on where you are on the continent, the hours of daylight during winter will be zero and the number of days with no sunrise/ sunset may vary from a few to six months.

Your answer has to do with sunrises and not with 'night'.

The length of time when there are no sunrises lasts from one day to six months, depending on where you are on the continent.

In Antarctica, there is sunlight for half the year, when the sun never sets, and for the other half there is no sunlight, when the sun never rises. Hope this helps!
