Time in Bilbao, Spain

Time zone: CEST (UTC/GMT +02:00) — Europe/Madrid

Bilbao keeps CEST (2 hours ahead of UTC, UTC+02:00). Its database zone is Europe/Madrid — worth knowing if you are scheduling anything that has to survive a daylight saving change.

Expect a clock change on Sunday, 25 October 2026: Bilbao switches to CET, moving back by 1 hour. Until that date the UTC+02:00 offset above holds.

Spain is not on a single clock: the 99 cities listed here fall across 3 time zones, so times elsewhere in the country will not match Bilbao.

Current gap between Bilbao and cities people most often need to coordinate with. These figures already account for daylight saving where it applies.

Where the two working days actually meet, expressed in Bilbao local time.

No shared working window exists with Los Angeles or Sydney, so those calls have to sit outside somebody's normal hours.

These Spain cities also use Europe/Madrid, so their clocks read identically to Bilbao at every moment of the year.
