Detailed explanation-1: -Note: some references say that the maximum Sprint length is 30 days or one month. This is considered essentially equivalent to a maximum length of 4 weeks.
Detailed explanation-2: -The sprint review is time boxed to a maximum of four hours for a four-week sprint. It is proportionately shorter for shorter sprints, down to one hour for a one-week sprint. As input to the sprint review, the team should show all of the product backlog items that meet the team’s definition of done.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sprints in scrum can be as long as you want; however, it’s most common for sprint length to be between 1 and 4 weeks. Teams running Scrum sprints need to decide what makes sense for them. We often see that team’s first instincts lean toward the extreme: Either 1-week sprints or 4-weeks sprints.
Detailed explanation-4: -A Sprint must be long enough to actually complete Stories. That is, the Team needs to be able to get Stories Done. It’s a rule of Scrum that a Sprint should never be longer than one month.
