When does daylight saving time end?
Daylight saving time ends at 2:00 a.m. local time on Sunday, November 1, 2026. Clocks go back one hour, to 1:00 a.m., so that night has an extra hour.
What to do
- Phones, computers and smart watches change on their own.
- Set ovens, microwaves, car clocks and wall clocks back one hour before bed on Saturday night.
- Sunrise and sunset come an hour earlier by the clock, so evenings get dark sooner.
- Game and show times on Where's It On are shown in your time zone and stay right through the change.
