Spring Equinox 2023: When the first day of spring begins in the UK

The clocks will soon spring forward in the UK and whilst this means we will miss out on an hours sleep, it also means that we will see more daylight.

Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday, March 26 this year, with the clocks changing at 1am. Whilst you will be missing out on some shut-eye at the end of the month, fear not, the days will hopefully become a little sunnier.
