"This reply shows that you are posting on the redesign without doing any research. I don't use the events feature, but if you bothered to do any research before commenting then you would see that it is quite popular."
Why do you have to take such a hostile tone? I'm not attacking you. This isn't an argument that can be won or lost.
That said, I still think you're exaggerating your case -- the redesign puts the event calendar on every page on the site, as opposed to the current design, where it only appears on a few pages. It may not be as prominent as you think it should be, but that's fairly subjective. Calling the design a "disaster" is a stretch.
The bottom line is that neither one of us knows the practical implications of the redesign, nor could we, without doing usability testing. It's a matter of opinion.
