## Resource

Get ready to lose an hour of sleep—Victoria’s daylight saving time kicks in Sunday, October 4, 2026, at 2 AM, when clocks jump forward to 3 AM. The payoff? Longer, brighter evenings perfect for stargazing, grabbing coffee with friends, or just soaking up the city vibe as the sun sets. Most gadgets handle the switch automatically, but analog clocks? You’ll need to set them yourself. Not everyone’s on the same schedule—Queensland, WA, and the NT stay on standard time year-round, while Victoria, NSW, ACT, Tasmania, and SA join the daylight saving club. It all started during WWI to save energy, but today it’s about making the most of those extra after-work hours. Clocks fall back April 1, bringing that lost sleep back—but until then, enjoy the extended golden glow. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
