The event search is not very smart. I created an event in Brighton (UK).

Search for: "Events brighton" returns my event plus many other events in other Brightons around the world.

Search for: "Events brighton uk" only returns 1 event (not mine) as they explicitly mentioned 'uk' in the location name.

So the search doesn't really understand that my event is in the UK, it is just doing a string match - even though Google knows the exact longitude and latitude of the event.
