Time change happens this weekend in Portugal

Written By Lara Silva

Time to welcome those late sunsets! Spring is here and so is daylight saving time. Portugal will change from winter time to summer time. On Sunday, 27 March 2022 clocks at 1 am will be turned forward 1 hour to 2 am. This change happens in mainland Portugal and Madeira. Due to the time difference in the Azores, the clocks will change from midnight to 1 am on Sunday.

Portugal changes its clocks twice a year, on the last Sunday of October to welcome winter and on the last Sunday of March to welcome summer. The next time change will occur on October 30th.
