displaying date format in a customaized way

I have the following date:

2014-09-26 11:30:00

I need to display it in the page like:

26-September-2014 At 11:00

I have the following code to do this:

$exp_datetime = date('d-F-Y At H:s', strtotime($exp_datetime)); // So stupid I know ;)
echo "Visit Date: " . $exp_datetime;

and I get the following result:

Visit Date: 26-September-2014 AM30 11:00

I need to know how can i get the required result!

Many many thanks in advance! :)

Also using datetime

$d = new DateTime('2014-09-26 11:30:00');
echo $d->format('d-F-Y \A\t H:s');

Alternatively, you could also use strftime() in this case:

echo strftime('%d-%B-%G At %H:%M', strtotime('2014-09-26 11:30:00'));
// 26-September-2014 At 11:30

You need to escape your "At" word. Because, as described here: http://php.net/manual/fr/datetime.format.php "A" and "t" are reserved characters.

So your correct code should be:

$exp_datetime = date('d-F-Y \A\t H:s', strtotime($exp_datetime));

$exp_datetime = date('d-F-Y At H:s', strtotime($exp_datetime));
                             ^

At is not an accepted date format character. You can do like

echo "Visit Date: ". date('d-F-Y', strtotime($exp_datetime));
echo " At ". date('H:s', strtotime($exp_datetime));
