Assuming you're looking at cash market opening and closing times, here they are:-
United Kingdom08:00 to 16:30
United States09.30 to 16:00
Europe08:00 to 20:00
Asia09:00 to 16:00
Australia and New Zealand10:00 to 16:45
South America09.30 to 17:00

They're all local times, so you'll just need to convert to your time, wherever you're based

The answer to your question is: it's complicated.

GMT is always constant. Many of the major financial centers have different DST (daylight savings time) schedules. For example, US and Europe use DST, but their schedules are slightly different, and Japan doesn't use DST at all. So, the Tokyo session times are the same in GMT throughout the year.
Another problem is that various sources may give different open/close times of the main forex trading sessions.

Let's take a look at something that's universally accepted. The New York session close (and by extension the FX market daily close) is at 17:00 US Eastern time every day of the year.
If you want to convert it to GMT, here's what you get for 2024:
Before 10 March 2024: 22:00 GMT
Between 10 March 2024 and 3 November 2024: 21:00 GMT
After 3 November 2024: 22:00 GMT
