British Summer Time ends at 2am Sunday 29 October 2017

29 Sep
2017

British Summer Time (or as it may be more properly called Daylight Saving Time) ends at 2am Sunday 29 October 2017. This means that at 2am on that Sunday, the time becomes 1am and premises entitled to trade to 2am or later can enjoy an extra hour of trade (unless there is something specific on your licence preventing this).

An early reminder however that on 25 March 2018, when BST/DST next begins, the reverse is true and unless you have a specific provision on your licence to cover the clocks going forward, you may wish to consider a Temporary Event Notice to ensure that you do not lose an hours trade when at 1am on that day, the time becomes 2am.

Law correct at the date of publication.
