Along with the rest of Queensland, Brisbane operates on
Australian Eastern Standard Time -- which is 10 hours ahead of GMT.
However, during the beautiful hot and humid summers, Queensland doesn't
change to Summertime or Daylight Saving with the rest of the East Coast
of Australia. This means it is an hour behind major commercial centres
such as Sydney, Melbourne and our National Capital Canberra.
