About AEST and EST
Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT) is used in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane. Sydney and Melbourne shift to AEDT from October to April; Brisbane stays on AEST.

Time difference between AEST and EST
EST is 16 hours behind AEST in winter (January) and 14 hours behind AEST in summer (July), because of daylight saving changes. The clocks and table above are computed live from the official IANA time zone database in your browser, so daylight saving transitions are always already included.
