Answer
An event allows an object to notify other objects when something happens.
Events follow the publisher–subscriber pattern and are based on delegates.
Quick Answer
An event is a delegate with restrictions — only the declaring class can invoke it, but anyone can subscribe. Standard pattern for notifications: button clicks, data changes, etc. Events prevent subscribers from replacing the delegate chain or invoking each other directly.
