a question about dates
Hello,
Do the following sentences sound odd to you?
- When is the referendum scheduled for?
- What's the date for the referendum?
- When's the referendum?
- When's the referendum going to be held?
I don't think I'd use the third sentence, but some people might use it. I think the other sentences are okay.
Thank you.

Yes, they sound OK, including #3. In Canada we sometimes have referendums, and we commonly say things like this.

#3 would sound quite natural in my native language too. A part of me thought that wouldn't be the case in English.
