In 2023, the clocks go back by one hour on Sunday, October 29 at 2 AM in the UK. This means at 2 AM the time changes to 1 AM, giving an extra hour in bed. The change marks the end of British Summer Time (BST) and the return to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
In the United States, Daylight Saving Time ends later, on Sunday, November 5, 2023, at 2 AM local time, when the clocks are set back one hour to 1 AM.
To summarize:
- UK clocks go back on October 29, 2023, at 2 AM.
- US clocks go back on November 5, 2023, at 2 AM local time.
This "fall back" time change means shorter evenings and earlier sunrises moving into winter.
