Kumasi is a city in Ghana, in Ashanti, with a population of about 2,544,530. It uses the Greenwich Mean Time time zone (IANA identifier Africa/Accra).

Kumasi does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+0 all year round. The time difference with places that do change their clocks — such as most of Europe and North America — therefore shifts by one hour twice a year.
