Description
### What
Coming from [here](https://github.com/Automattic/dotcom-feedback/issues/333), I'm raising this as a request from @supernovia:
>Hackday idea: can we get a nice Upcoming Events block, similar to the [https://wordpress.com/support/widgets/upcoming-events/#upcoming-events-shortcodeshortcode>](https://wordpress.com/support/widgets/upcoming-events/#upcoming-events-shortcodeshortcode%3E) but with more display options, like hiding descriptions and formatting dates so they don't look unkempt in a list? I've seen multiple requests for things like that recently.
### Why
This is requested by our users.
### How
