How would you like the feature to work?

I would like the option to repeat events when adding them to the community events listings.
When setting the date, I'd like to be offered to have the event just once (standard), have it repeated daily, weekly or monthly or have it repeated on certain days of the week.
Once selected, the event will be added to ALL those days in the community events listings till it ends.

Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?

There are many events that happen very regularly or last several days, adding these to the events calendar is now such a pain, most people don't even bother.
For instance, I have an event in 1920s Berlin that happens EVERY day except Friday and Saturday, it almost always brings in a crowd and is very important for the community spirit of our sim.
If I would want to add this to the community events calendar, I'd have to create 250+ separate event listings.
Doing this would melt my brain.
But even if you just have one weekly event, you'd still have to create 52 listings.
And if you have a big event that last more than one day, such as the Arcade or other big events, you'd have to create 2 12 hour events per day, just to make sure you cover it all.
Being able to just once create one event listing and have it automatically pop up in the community events listings would be a huge boost for all events.
And especially now that we're working on these new Place pages where the events calendar for each parcel will get a prominent spot, making sure all your events reach a public becomes even more important.
