Spain will switch back to winter time on 25 October

The next time change in Spain will take place on 25 October. That night, daylight saving time will end and clocks will need to be set back sixty minutes, according to the calendar published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado.

In Madrid, as in the rest of the Península y Baleares, at 03:00 it will go back to 02:00. In the Canary Islands, the adjustment will be made at 02:00, when the clock will go back to 01:00. This repeated hour will mean that Sunday will officially last 25 hours.

It's a good idea to check any clocks that need to be adjusted manually. With the new schedule, sunrise and sunset will be an hour earlier by the clock, although the amount of daylight will not change just because the hands have moved.

Winter time will remain in effect until 28 March 2027, the scheduled date for the next change, when clocks will need to be set forward one hour.
