Groups - we need to be able to allow people to create their own groups, kind of like on Facebook, so the community can be self-organizing. Can Discourse do this?

Users can create groups using the Pavilion Custom Wizard plugin.

Regarding events

You might want to take a look at the Events Integration plugin which has similar functionality.
