About Lancing Time Zone

Lancing, United Kingdom uses Europe/London, which follows UTC+0 in standard time and UTC+1 during daylight saving time. In January, Lancing is on UTC+0; in July, it is on UTC+1, so schedules that cross the winter-to-summer boundary need to account for the one-hour shift.

Lancing observes daylight saving time, with clocks going forward on Sunday, March 29, 2026 and back on Sunday, October 25, 2026. That matters for UK-based offices, schools, rail timetables, and international teams because a recurring meeting with New York, Dubai, or Tokyo can move relative to local business hours when the clocks change.

Lancing is in West Sussex, England, on the south coast of the United Kingdom, close to Worthing and Brighton.
