Learn English – How to use dates with from and to

datesprepositionstime

Do these sentences make sense?

"X is a food trade show which took place from the 4th to the 7th November 2013"

"the international congress was held from 22nd to 24th October 2015"

What are the other alternatives? The different ways with which I can express the same concept but with different methods. Like, dunno, is "from November 4 to November 7 2013" acceptable, FOR INSTANCE?

Thanks to everyone!

Yes, that's acceptable. Though if you use "November 7 2013", you must put a comma after the 7 to differentiate the date. "November 7, 2013."

"X is a good trade show which took place from November 4th to November 7th in 2013."

"X is a food trade show which took place from the 4th to the 7th of November in 2013."

"X is a food trade show which took place from November 4th to 7th in 2013."

"The international congress was held from the 22nd to the 24th of October in 2015."

ETC.
