If you didnt use data binding and simply want to display your Events property in listbox then it will be:

foreach (var Event in Events)
{
    listBox1.Items.Add(Event);
}

//and in the ListBox, specify which property of Event to be displayed
<ListBox x:Name="listBox1" DisplayMemberPath="Name"/>

Or i may be missing something in the question, since it seems to be too straight forward..

UPDATE : To display more than one property value in each listbox item you need to specify ItemTemplate instead of simply setting DisplayMemberPath. For example:

<ListBox x:Name="listBox1">
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding name}" Margin="0,0,10,0"/>
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding address}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

thank-you.. it works good.. my single value has nearly 7 data.. so i can successfully get the single array[] value..but i need to extract all the value of array..eg:Array[0]={"name","id","address",..},array[1]={"name","id","address",..},array[2]={"name","id","address",..},..

i dont get what you mean, so you have two dimensional array? That means different problem then the one you stated in question. Or you just want to display all properties of Event in the ListBox instead of only one?

i need to display all the properties of Event[]

if that is the case, see update section of my answer. You can add more TextBlock to display more property, or create your own template if you want

Instead of using

public Event[] Events {get; set;}

use

public List<Event> Events {get; set;}

add items into your list with

Events.Add(new Events
{
  id = 1,
  event_day = today
});

and bind it to listbox with

listbox.itemsource = Events;
