Solar Eclipse 2026: Total Solar Eclipse Dazzles Millions Across Spain, Iceland & Portugal

Millions across Europe are looking to the skies as a rare total solar eclipse sweeps across parts of the continent, briefly turning daylight into darkness.

The 2026 total solar eclipse is visible across key viewing locations including Spain, Iceland and parts of Portugal, creating a spectacular celestial display. During totality, the Moon moves directly between the Earth and the Sun, completely blocking the Sun’s disc and revealing its outer atmosphere, the solar corona.

At maximum eclipse, totality lasts for around 2 minutes and 18 seconds. The event has also triggered huge public interest, with pharmacies, opticians and retailers reporting a surge in demand for specialized eclipse glasses.

Spain is expecting a major tourism boost from the event, with estimates suggesting hundreds of thousands of additional visitors and potentially €347 million in economic activity.
