Daylight saving time in Queensland: when the clocks change.
Queensland does not change its clocks. The dates on the right are when Sydney changes, which moves the time difference between them. Clock change dates come from the IANA time zone database.
- 5 April 2026 Clocks go back 1 hour Daylight saving time ends at 3:00 local time
- 4 October 2026 Clocks go forward 1 hour Daylight saving time starts at 2:00 local time
- 4 April 2027 Clocks go back 1 hour Daylight saving time ends at 3:00 local time
- 3 October 2027 Clocks go forward 1 hour Daylight saving time starts at 2:00 local time
Because the clocks never change here, the gap to places that do change moves by one hour twice a year.
