If you’re using .NET 3.5 or later, you can use TimeZoneInfo:

TimeZoneInfo otherZone = ...;
DateTime otherZoneTimeNow = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTime(DateTime.UtcNow, otherZone);

You need to be somewhat careful using TimeZoneInfo – different DateTime “kinds” do different things – you should read the docs for any call you make carefully. (I recently blogged about the problems with DateTime… TimeZoneInfo basically has to handle the ambiguity.)
