Explanation

Sprint Planning is time-boxed proportionally to the Sprint length. The Scrum Guide specifies a maximum of 8 hours for a one-month Sprint. Shorter Sprints have proportionally shorter Sprint Planning sessions (e.g., ~4 hours for a two-week Sprint). There is no single fixed duration - it scales with Sprint length.
