With http://api.wordpress.org/events/1.0/?latitude=47.496&longitude=8.226 you can display the next WordPress-Events arround a geoposition. This can be displayed with the free plugin this way:
Create a new page with Gutenberg active. Insert the above URL into the Blocks API-URL. The “basenode” is “events”.
The template is:
{subloop-array:events:-1}
<a href={events.meetup_url} target=_blank>{events.title}</a><br>{events.date:datetime,"d.m.Y, H:i",0}<br>
{subloop:events.location:-1}{events.location.location}{/subloop:events.location}<hr>
{/subloop-array:events}
Screenshot of the Block-Settings:

Example in Action: Additional set “Number of json-top-level-items to display” to 2.
If you want to format the date you need the pro plugin.
