Current time in Australia

Australia uses the IANA time zone database for accurate, DST-aware local time. Each city page below shows the live local clock, current UTC offset, whether Daylight Saving Time is currently in effect, and a 24-hour conversion grid for cross-timezone planning.

Spanning 7 time zones means business hours, flight departures and broadcast schedules in Australia can't be quoted as a single "local time". The most populated cities — listed first below — give the clearest real-world picture of when offices, markets and call centres are open.
