About the time in Bristol
Bristol is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −4 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
Around 60,477 people live in Bristol, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Bristol sits at latitude 41.68, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 37m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
