# Local timezone

> Display timestamps throughout the app in your local timezone.

You can display dates on various pages (e.g. the Pipelines list and
Triggers/Pipeline runs/Block runs pages) in your local timezone, as
well as configure the start date for triggers and backfills in local
time. In the Version control terminal, this setting also controls new
terminal session timezone behavior: sessions use UTC by default, and use your
browser's local IANA timezone for prompt timestamps and the `TZ` environment
variable when `Display local timezone` is enabled.

## Steps to enable local timezone setting

1. Go to your project's `Settings` page (with the wrench icon) from the
   left vertical navigation panel.
2. Under the "Features" section, click the toggle to turn the `Display local timezone`
   setting on.
3. Then click the blue `Save project settings` button to save and persist the
   new settings. If you do not click this button, you will lose any changes when
   leaving the page.

* Alternatively (starting with v0.9.48), you can simply click on the time in the header
  and toggle on the `Display local timezone` setting from the dropdown menu. This may
  require a page refresh for the timestamps to change to UTC or local time.

<Info>
  Please note that certain pages (e.g. a pipeline's Monitor page) or components
  (e.g. Pipeline run bar charts) may still be in UTC time. These UTC dates may
  only display the date (e.g. 2023-09-01) without any time. Dates in local time
  will have a timezone offset (e.g. -07:00) in the timestamp (e.g.
  2023-09-01T12:30:45-07:00).
