Time difference between Los Angeles and London

Does the gap change?

The gap isn't fixed. Los Angeles and London both use daylight saving time, but they change their clocks on different dates, so the difference moves during the year:

• From around October 25, 2026: London ahead by 7 hours
• From around November 1, 2026: London ahead by 8 hours
• From around March 14, 2027: London ahead by 7 hours
• From around March 28, 2027: London ahead by 8 hours

Best time to meet

Normal office hours in London and Los Angeles don't overlap. The most workable window is 7 AM to 2 PM in Los Angeles, which is 3 PM to 10 PM in London, with one side starting early or finishing late.

For a recurring meeting, it's fairest to rotate which city takes the inconvenient slot.
