If you are using Django 1.4+ with
USE_TZ=Truethe datetimes are converted to UTC when they are passed to MySQL. When they are retrieved back, Django converts these datetimes to the timezone in use.If you want to store local times (usually not a good idea) you can turn off timezone management:
USE_TZ=False.If you want to store TZ information on DB, you will have to switch to PostgreSQL.
