If you didnt use data binding and simply want to display your Events property in listbox then it will be:

foreach (var Event in Events)
{
    listBox1.Items.Add(Event);
}

//and in the ListBox, specify which property of Event to be displayed
<ListBox x:Name="listBox1" DisplayMemberPath="Name"/>

Or i may be missing something in the question, since it seems to be too straight forward..

UPDATE : To display more than one property value in each listbox item you need to specify ItemTemplate instead of simply setting DisplayMemberPath. For example:

<ListBox x:Name="listBox1">
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding name}" Margin="0,0,10,0"/>
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding address}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

Instead of using 

public Event[] Events {get; set;}

use

public List<Event> Events {get; set;}

add items into your list with

Events.Add(new Events
{
  id = 1,
  event_day = today
});

and bind it to listbox with

listbox.itemsource = Events;
