Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT)

About AEDT

Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) is the daylight saving time used in the eastern parts of Australia during the summer months. The time zone offset of AEDT is UTC+11:00, which means it is 11 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Australian Eastern Daylight Time is observed to make better use of daylight during the warmer months of the year. During winter, these regions switch back to Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST), which has a UTC offset of UTC+10:00.

AEDT is followed in parts of eastern Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, and Canberra during the daylight saving period.
