Format DateTime with PHP

My API outputs the DateTime in the following format: 2018-06-17T09:07:00Z

How do I display this in a more meaningful way, say, 17/06/2018.

I looked at the Manual: http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.date.php however still wasn't able to find a way to achieve this.

$eventStart = "2018-06-17T09:07:00Z";

Format the date, but first convert the string to time.

echo date('d/m/Y', strtotime($inputDate));

Convert the string in time and then format the date which you want

$date = '2018-06-17T09:07:00Z';
echo date('d/m/Y', strtotime($date));

Use Date Format :

$inputDate = "2018-06-17T09:07:00Z";
echo date('d/m/Y', strtotime($inputDate));
