In 2025, clocks will be set back (end of daylight saving time) on Sunday, November 2, at 2:00 AM local time. This means most Americans will "fall back" one hour and gain an extra hour of sleep. This change marks the switch from daylight saving time to standard time. In the UK and much of Europe, the clocks go back earlier, on the last Sunday in October. For example, in France, the change happens on the night of October 25 to October 26, 2025, at 3 AM (which then becomes 2 AM). In the UK, it's on October 26, 2025, at 2 AM (local time). Thus, the time change happens on different dates depending on the region:
- United States: November 2, 2025, at 2 AM
- United Kingdom: October 26, 2025, at 2 AM
- France and much of Europe: October 26, 2025, at 3 AM (becomes 2 AM)
