Hello,
I opened [FIX: Refresh event dates in topic lists - Pull Request #43285 - discourse/discourse - GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/43285) for this.
I then made a screen recording of manual testing against the PR head commit:
>
The PR is based on `main`.

The red timer in the recording counts down to the relevant event boundaries, while the green clock shows the current wall-clock time, so the recording should be self-contained.
I’ve included my exact test timings and BBCode below as supplementary notes.
> **First test — edit end only**

> Intended timings:
>
> | start | edited start | end | edited end |
> | --- | --- | --- | --- |
> | 16:22 | no edit | 16:25 | 16:28 |
>
> The BBCode initially was:
>
> ```plaintext
> [event start="2026-09-04 16:22" status=public timezone=Europe/London end="2026-09-04 16:25"]
> this is an event description
> [/event]

> ```

> I explicitly changed it to:

> ```plaintext
> [event start="2026-09-04 16:22" status=public timezone=Europe/London end="2026-09-04 16:28"]
> this is an event description

> **Second test — edit start only**
>
> Intended timings:
>
> | start | edited start | end | edited end |
> | --- | --- | --- | --- |
> | 16:31 | 16:32 | 16:35 | no edit |

> ```plaintext
> [event start="2026-09-04 17:00" end="2026-09-04 18:00" status="public" timezone="Europe/London" reminders="notification.15.minutes"]

> [/event]

> So this particular run should not be treated as a clean `16:31` → `16:32` start-only comparison.
