The meeting has been scheduled from 1 June to 5 June.

How should I rephrase the above sentence to be grammatically correct? Below are what, I think, are the correct sentences.

The meeting has been scheduled for 1 June to 5 June.

The meeting has been scheduled to begin on 1 June and end on 5 June.

Am I correct?

@tanguatlay,
I don't see any problem with any of them.

Are you sure the first sentence reproduced below is correct.

@tanguatlay,
It is correct as far I know. Maybe others may say different but wait for them.

@talk72000,

Okay, but a "meeting" is normally a single event.

You probably should describe this as a "conference", or some such other term.
Symposium?

Thanks, McTag.

I have replaced 'meeting' with 'seminar'.

I would like to know whether all the three sentences are correct.

I like that one.

But you could simplify it.

for example: The seminar will run from 1 June to 5 June.
