Helsinki to London: the time difference

On 2026-10-05 at 9:00 AM in Helsinki, it is 7:00 AM in London (Monday, October 5, 2026). London is 2 hours behind of Helsinki.

Helsinki is one hour ahead of many Central European capitals under current rules. A 9 AM Berlin meeting is therefore not a 9 AM Helsinki meeting. London is often described as being on GMT, but it uses British Summer Time during part of the year. Choosing Europe/London keeps both seasons attached to the same calendar event.
