Hey...I'm getting really confused with all the PDT PST EST EDT stuff...If I live in Toronto, what time are the ticket sales for me? If it says 11am PDT, is that actually 1pm my time?

    PDT is 3 hours earlier than the east, assuming you're from the east. So yes, 11am PDT would be 2 pm Eastern time.

    yep, 3 hours difference. I am lucky, I'm a teacher but do not have a class that day at 2pm so I can buy tickets for Mansfied...otherwise, I would have had to say 'sorry kids, I will be right back...need to purchase some PJ tickets...' :)

    Does anyone know what time it would be in Sydney Australia,
    say for 9am PDT.

    Or what is the difference between PST and PDT?

    I'm a teacher too, and I always give my kids busy work when tickets go on sale, or I show a movie.
    I like bands.

    how would getting out more help them understand time zone differences?
