Syntax:
CREATE 
    [DEFINER = { user | CURRENT_USER }]
    EVENT 
    [IF NOT EXISTS]
    event_name    
    ON SCHEDULE schedule
    [ON COMPLETION [NOT] PRESERVE]
    [ENABLE | DISABLE | DISABLE ON SLAVE]
    [COMMENT 'comment']
    DO sql_statement;

schedule:
    AT timestamp [+ INTERVAL interval] ...
  | EVERY interval 
    [STARTS timestamp [+ INTERVAL interval] ...] 
    [ENDS timestamp [+ INTERVAL interval] ...]

interval:
    quantity {YEAR | QUARTER | MONTH | DAY | HOUR | MINUTE |
              WEEK | SECOND | YEAR_MONTH | DAY_HOUR | DAY_MINUTE |
              DAY_SECOND | HOUR_MINUTE | HOUR_SECOND | MINUTE_SECOND}

This statement creates and schedules a new event. It requires the EVENT
privilege for the schema in which the event is to be created.

The minimum requirements for a valid CREATE EVENT statement are as
follows:

o The keywords CREATE EVENT plus an event name, which uniquely
  identifies the event in the current schema. (Prior to MySQL 5.1.12,
  the event name needed to be unique only among events created by the
  same user on a given database.)

o An ON SCHEDULE clause, which determines when and how often the event
  executes.

o A DO clause, which contains the SQL statement to be executed by an
  event.

This is an example of a minimal CREATE EVENT statement:

CREATE EVENT myevent
    ON SCHEDULE AT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR
    DO
      UPDATE myschema.mytable SET mycol = mycol + 1;

The previous statement creates an event named myevent. This event
executes once --- one hour following its creation --- by running an SQL
statement that increments the value of the myschema.mytable table's
mycol column by 1.

The event_name must be a valid MySQL identifier with a maximum length
of 64 characters. It may be delimited using back ticks, and may be
qualified with the name of a database schema. An event is associated
with both a MySQL user (the definer) and a schema, and its name must be
unique among names of events within that schema. In general, the rules
governing event names are the same as those for names of stored
routines. See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/identifiers.html.

If no schema is indicated as part of event_name, the default (current)
schema is assumed.
