"If you search for [events near me], Google may not show you any events near you. It seems like Google is not serving that events carousel right now. I suspect it is a bug and I wonder if this is related to the serving bug from Friday afternoon? This was spotted by Vijay Chauhan who tracks event types of queries pretty closely. He posted a video of this on X and he seems to be correct, I cannot see event results either:"
"Seems like there's an outage or some testing going on with search results for the event module. I've tested this across many countries on both mobile &desktop, and those event rich cards are now completely missing.Not sure if this is a bug or if Google is testing something. pic.twitter.com/ArochAVz7i- Vijay Chauhan 📈 (@VijayChauhanSEO) October 6, 2025 @rustybrick, this is an outage as &udm=54 is a code for a trigger events menu. However, it is currently not triggering any events. pic.twitter.com/6WD8plXg0Y- Vijay Chauhan 📈 (@VijayChauhanSEO) October 6, 2025"
Search queries for 'events near me' are not returning event carousels. Event rich cards that normally appear are missing across multiple countries on both mobile and desktop. The trigger parameter &udm=54, associated with the events menu, is present but failing to activate event results. The behavior indicates an outage or active testing that affects serving of the event module. Searchers and site owners will not see event listings or rich event cards in the results during the issue. The problem has been observed in multiple locales and device types, suggesting a server-side change rather than a localized index gap. Resolution may require Google's reinstatement of the events module or completion of testing. Monitoring search results and tracking the &udm=54 trigger parameter can confirm when event cards resume appearing.
