In the early morning of 29 October, the day of the local election in Bulgaria, we shall be turning the clocks back by one hour and returning to standard time.

Despite attitudes in Europe, there will be a time change again on the last Sunday of March, 2024. Surveys involving 4.6 million European citizens conducted in 2018 showed that 84% say time change must be put an end to. In Bulgaria, 96% of the respondents say they do not want to turn the clocks back or forward twice a year.
