In English I would say I'm on vacation from August
20th to September 3rd but in Italian I would way
"Dal venti agosto al tre settembre" Which is literally
translated as "From twenty August to the three
september"

In England we would normally say "I am on holiday from the Twentieth of August to the third of September"
