I have updated to Photos on my Mac and lost my iPhoto Events. All my photos are still there but sorted in date order. That is meaningless as I am going through a big exercise to scan my photos and had them beautifully organised in Events order.

Hating Photos app. Ive just dragged iPhoto back into my dock (from apps).
As noted above, there should be a new folder named "iPhoto Events" in the Albums view. You can also tell Photos to show the sidebar, and the "iPhoto Events" folder can be opened there.
I have found iPhoto events in the album view. But how shall I handle them in order to work in a new Photo native way?
With iPhoto I used to work with events and I have plenty of them. What shall I do now?
Thanks for helping, daniele
If you want to continue arranging your pictures in 'events', you have to use albums now. The moments view won't give you any flexibility beyond changing dates. My suggestion is: whenever you import a bunch of pictures, put them into albums immediately. In addition, I suggest creating a smart album with parameters [Album] [is not] [Any] to see all pictures that are currently not within an album, so that you don't miss any.
If you want to do it 'natively' then you have to make sure that all your new pictures are properly timestamped and, if possible, tagged with location data. Photos will arrange your pictures based on date and label them based on location data. Photos recognises events that have taken place over several days, but only if it can make sense of the location data.
