Events are entities like anything else, that you can describe using RDF.

[1] http://linkeddata.uriburner.com/c/9VP4GUF -- event:Event instances 
with triangulation (via follow-your-nose) to Event Ontology etc..
[2] http://linkeddata.uriburner.com/c/8FUQED -- ISWC4 description 
(leverages timeline, event, and RDF statement reification ontology terms) .
