After the change, sunrise and sunset both come one hour later on the clock: mornings are darker again for a few weeks, and evenings stay light for longer.

All EU countries change on the same day at the same moment (01:00 UTC), together with the United Kingdom, Norway, Switzerland and most other European countries. Iceland, Belarus, Russia and Turkey stay on the same time all year. The EU has discussed ending the seasonal clock change, but no decision has been put into practice; the dates here follow the current rules.

Sunrise and sunset before and after the change

Local clock times on Saturday, March 27 and Sunday, March 28.
