Search the events pack Google shows for an event query (for example "concerts in austin") and get up to ten events with date, address, venue, description, price and ticket links. The response uses the field names of the SerpApi google_events engine. The htichips filter is approximated with query words, and uule is accepted but not sent. start above 0 returns an empty events_results because the pack holds one page.
