Is it possible to get a Facebook event name by its URL?

Is it possible to get a Facebook event name by its URL? In the API/developers or through their graph it isn't clear if this is possible. I'm trying to implement a widget in my site where the user inputs certain event URL and then the widget parses the URL and gives the event name.

The last part of an event URL is the event ID:

https://www.facebook.com/events/137072909798458/

You could just parse the URL to get the ID and use it with Graph:

graph.facebook.com/137072909798458/
