The commonest use of this term in mathematics is in probability theory, where it means much the same as it does in everyday life.

An event is something that might or might not occur.

For example, an event might be selecting an ace from a pack of cards, or throwing an 'even' with a pair of dice, or that there will be exactly ten motoring accidents reported by police on the Gardener Expressway in Toronto during the remainder of this afternoon.
