To sign 'event', start with both hands in front of your chest, palms facing up, with your middle fingers bent inward towards your palms (often called the 'open 8' handshape). Move both hands upward and slightly outward in a quick, light motion. This is the same sign commonly used for 'what's up'.
Sign 'event' by moving your hands upward with bent middle fingers, then point forward for 'you', sign 'go', and finish with 'tonight' while raising your eyebrows to ask a yes/no question.
Use the sign for 'event', followed by 'fun', and make sure your facial expression shows genuine excitement to match the positive tone of the sentence.

Sometimes. The sign for 'happen' can be used if you are talking about a general occurrence, but the sign shown here is much more common when referring to a planned social gathering, activity, or special occasion.
No, your hands should hover just in front of your chest. While the middle fingers point inward toward your body, they do not need to make physical contact with your chest during the sign.
