Live time conversion and hour-by-hour comparison
This page shows the live time conversion between Nashville and London. The hour-by-hour chart above makes it easy to find overlapping business hours for meetings or calls. Green highlights indicate standard business hours (9 AM – 5 PM) in each city.
Nashville and London are 6 hours apart (5 during mutual DST overlap). While Nashville is smaller than New York or Chicago, its specializations — healthcare (HCA, the largest private hospital operator globally) and music — have significant London connections. Nashville's healthcare companies manage international operations, and the music industry's London offices coordinate with Music Row regularly.
Nashville's Central Time position gives it 1 hour better overlap with London than East Coast cities experience. A 9 AM CT call catches London at 3 PM GMT — mid-afternoon and ideal. The overlap window from 8 AM to 11 AM CT (2 PM to 5 PM GMT) provides 3 full hours of comfortable coordination. This is better than what Los Angeles (1-2 hours of overlap) can manage with London.
Nashville's rapid growth as a corporate destination has increased its international scheduling needs. Amazon's operations hub, Oracle's headquarters relocation, and AllianceBernstein's move from New York have all added international business requiring London coordination. The city's timezone and growing flight connections (BNA has added multiple European routes) support this expanding role.
For Nashville professionals calling London: 9-11 AM CT is your golden window (3-5 PM GMT). For London professionals calling Nashville: 2-4 PM GMT catches Nashville at 8-10 AM CT — both sides are fresh and productive. The 6-hour gap is manageable enough for daily standups, making Nashville-London one of the easier transatlantic scheduling pairs.
