Quick Scoop

In the U.S., daylight saving time changes twice a year : clocks go forward on the second Sunday in March and go back on the first Sunday in November.

For 2026 , that means:

  • Starts: Sunday, March 8, 2026 at 2:00 a.m. local time.
  • Ends: Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 2:00 a.m. local time.

If you mean another country or your local area, tell me which one and I’ll give the exact date.
