# Changing your time zone
GitLab defaults its time zone to UTC. It has a global timezone configuration parameter in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
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`.

gitlab_rails['time_zone'] = 'America/New_York'
```
