About Stockholm
Stockholm runs on Central European Time and follows the EU clock-change schedule. The Swedish working day starts early and ends early, and the extreme seasonal variation in daylight — near-continuous light in June, a few hours in December — has a real effect on when people want to meet, even though it does not change the clock.
