Good evening Toni and welcome back!
Thank you for reaching out to us.
We are sorry to hear about the issues you are facing with events published by Shop managers.
I would love to help you with this topic.
As a first troubleshooting step, could you please provide us with your complete system information in a private reply using the instructions found in the following link?

Secondly, could you take a look at your settings under Events -> Settings -> Community ?
More specifically, pay attention to the Default status for submitted events setting.
If it is set to anything else than Published, it means that you have to approve the events as an admin before they are visible.
Secondly, you might want to take a look at the Shop manager’s role permissions. Depending on their permission to publish posts or events, they might not be able to achieve true publication.
Let me know how that goes.
Best regards,
Geoff B.
