# Changing your time zone
|
|
|
|
The global time zone configuration parameter can be changed in `config/gitlab.yml`:
|
|
```
|
|
# time_zone: 'UTC'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Uncomment and customize if you want to change the default time zone of GitLab application.
|
|
|
|
To see all available time zones, run `bundle exec rake time:zones:all`.
|
|
|
|
With Omnibus installations, run `gitlab-rake time:zones:all`.
|
|
|
|
## Changing time zone in omnibus installations
|
|
|
|
GitLab defaults its time zone to UTC. It has a global timezone configuration parameter in `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`.
|
|
|
|
To update, add the time zone that best applies to your location. Here are two examples:
|
|
```
|
|
gitlab_rails['time_zone'] = 'America/New_York'
|
|
```
|
|
or
|
|
```
|
|
gitlab_rails['time_zone'] = 'Europe/Brussels'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After you added this field, reconfigure and restart:
|
|
```
|
|
gitlab-ctl reconfigure
|
|
gitlab-ctl restart
|
|
```
