Sydney Time — Timezone & Offset Guide
Sydney observes Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST, UTC+10) in winter and Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT, UTC+11) in summer — but Australian seasons are reversed from the Northern Hemisphere, so clocks go forward in October. Sydney is Australia's largest financial centre and the first major city to open the global trading week each Monday.
Sydney observes DST in the Southern Hemisphere summer (October–April), running on AEDT (UTC+11) during this period.
