You can create sophisticated repeat event patterns.  for example its easy to create events that repeat on:

• 3rd Thursday in November
• Every other Tuesday
• 4 July each year
• 1st, 12th and 18th of each month
• 3 days before the end of April

When you want to change a specific repeat - maybe the date or time is different to the normal pattern or the venue or description is changes you can easily change the specific repeat in the frontend or backend of Joomla.  If you want to delete a specific repeat or all future repeats that is easy too.

You can configure JEvents to block the creation of events that overlap with other events or repeats.  

You can set this universally to block any overlapping events or on a category specific basis - this way you can stop the creation of more than one event in the same category at the same time.

Club member addons such as the managed locations addon can be used to block the creation of overlapping events at the same venue.  The screenshot here tells the creator of this event that there is already a clashing event occuring at the Ruthin Goal Museum.

You can manage permissions on a user specific basis (authorised user mode) or using the Joomla 2.5 user groups.

In addition permissions can be set for specific categories so you can have users who can create/edit events in one category but not in another.
