when do we turn our clocks ahead

In 2026, clocks are turned ahead for daylight saving time on:

• United States & most of Canada: Sunday, March 8, 2026, at 2:00 a.m. local time (they jump to 3:00 a.m.).

• United Kingdom & most of Europe: Sunday, March 29, 2026, at 1:00 a.m. UK time (they jump to 2:00 a.m.).

A simple way to remember it:

Spring forward, fall back.

If you’re in a different country, most places that observe daylight saving switch the clocks forward once in spring , generally in March, then back once in autumn , generally in October or November.
