What time is it in Alaska?

11:27:41PM

Alaska Standard TimeUTC-9America/Anchorage

Alaska observes Daylight Saving Time

Clocks go forward an hour on the second Sunday in March and back on the first Sunday in November, so Alaska is on Alaska Daylight Time in summer and Alaska Standard Time in winter.

Almost all of Alaska keeps Alaska Time. The far-western Aleutian Islands, beyond 169°30′W, keep Hawaii-Aleutian Time, an hour behind.

When the clocks change — the next date, and every one to 2031.

Alaska spans 7 zones

Alaska cities on a different clock

Most of Alaska keeps one zone, but 1 city does not. Each has its own page, because the answer there is genuinely different — everywhere else in the state the clock is the one above.
