Date & Time Representation in Event Detail View

As I have seen, the date and time info in the detail view is a real long string. To make it less cluttered and more clear I am proposing the following:

If it is something to happen in a day between hrs it could be like this:

Today 9 am - 1pm

or

Tomorrow 9:30 - 12:45

(It could round time to 15 min to make it more clear)

On the other hand if its within one week it could look like this:

Next Sunday 10:00 - 12:00

And if it´s not within this time frame it could look like this:

25 December (Tuesday) 10:00 - 16:00

If it´s going to take more days I would put it like this:

9/11 - 10/12 (no time)

The idea behind is to read really quickly the info.
