About AEDT
Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) is UTC+11. It is used in Sydney and Melbourne from October to April.
Australian Eastern Daylight Time is UTC+11, the summer clock for Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra — and summer here means October to April, the opposite half of the year from the northern hemisphere. That inversion is what makes Australia–Europe scheduling awkward: for a few weeks each spring and autumn the two regions are shifting in opposite directions, and the offset between them changes twice within a month.
About ACDT
Australian Central Daylight Time (ACDT) is UTC+10:30. It is used in Adelaide in summer.
Australian Central Daylight Time is UTC+10:30, what South Australia keeps from October to April. Darwin stays on ACST through the summer, so for those months two cities in the same nominal zone are an hour apart — the only reason to be precise about which of the two abbreviations a meeting invitation carries.
Does this gap change with the seasons?
This gap is seasonal. The abbreviations themselves are fixed offsets, but the region on AEDT switches to AEST (UTC+10) from April to October. So the 0.5-hour figure on this page is correct for the part of the year when both places are actually on these abbreviations, and changes by an hour outside it.
ACDT does not shift, so the whole change comes from one side. A recurring meeting fixed in ACDT will appear to move by an hour for everyone on the other side, twice a year, without anyone changing anything.
This is the reason scheduling systems store an IANA zone such as Region/City rather than an offset or an abbreviation: the zone knows its own rules and the offset does not.
Frequently asked questions
What time is 9:00 AM AEDT in ACDT?
9:00 AM AEDT is 8:30 AM ACDT.
Is ACDT ahead of AEDT?
ACDT is 30 minutes behind AEDT.
Which time zone does this use?
AEDT is UTC+11 and ACDT is UTC+10:30. Both abbreviations denote a single fixed offset, so this conversion never shifts with daylight saving — what changes is which abbreviation a place is using at the time.
