About Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina and the country's political, financial and cultural centre. It is a major port on the Río de la Plata, and visitors know it for tango, its European-style avenues, football and late-night dining culture, with dinner often eaten well after 9pm.

Buenos Aires uses Argentina Time, UTC-3, and the country does not observe daylight saving, so the offset is the same throughout the year. All of Argentina shares one time zone. Because the United States and Europe change their clocks while Argentina does not, the gap to New York or London shifts by an hour across the year. During the northern summer, Buenos Aires is just one hour ahead of New York.
