Whether in-person or virtual, event planning could be something you'll be involved with as an intern. This isn't usually a requirement for the position, so the interviewer is simply looking to ascertain if you have experience in event planning or not.

"Over the years, I've been involved in numerous events through different clubs at school. The most memorable one for me was an interview workshop event through the business college. I volunteered to help so I could learn more about doing well in interviews! I reached out to several local businesses to see if they were interested in giving short presentations to attendees. I also helped plan the layout of the space, figuring out the best way to set up the different booths. My favorite part was helping design the flyers we hung up around campus."
If you've planned an event, share all the details including its purpose, size, and how and why it was successful. If you haven't planned an event, that's okay. Let the interviewer know that while you haven't planned a formal event, you do have excellent organizational skills and would be happy to learn more about event planning as an intern.
