About time in Dublin
Dublin runs on Greenwich Mean Time in winter and Irish Summer Time in summer, sharing the same UTC+0/UTC+1 cycle as London just across the Irish Sea. The city shifts its clocks on the EU schedule — forward on the last Sunday of March and back on the last Sunday of October — and its latitude near 53°N brings a dramatic seasonal daylight swing, with summer sunsets past 21:00 and winter afternoons that darken before 16:00, which is why the DST switch is felt so strongly here. Dublin is a major European hub for technology and pharmaceuticals, with many U.S. tech companies basing their European headquarters in the city, so its business day bridges the U.S. and European time zones. Euronext Dublin opens at 08:00 local time, and the city’s business calendar is shaped by Irish public holidays and the long St. Patrick’s Day festival in March. An accurate Dublin time reference is essential for anyone coordinating with Ireland’s large tech and pharma sectors or with the Irish diaspora worldwide.
