Here is a full example on how to transform your date in different types:

Date date = Calendar.getInstance().getTime();

    // Display a date in day, month, year format
    DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
    String today = formatter.format(date);
    System.out.println("Today : " + today);

    // Display date with day name in a short format
    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd/MM/yyyy");
    today = formatter.format(date);
    System.out.println("Today : " + today);

    // Display date with a short day and month name
    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy");
    today = formatter.format(date);
    System.out.println("Today : " + today);

    // Formatting date with full day and month name and show time up to
    // milliseconds with AM/PM
    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE, dd MMMM yyyy, hh:mm:ss.SSS a");
    today = formatter.format(date);
    System.out.println("Today : " + today);
