First of all, if your event is a meeting, it should only be timestamped, not deadlined or scheduled. Then it will just show up where it's supposed to, and not before (or after). It probably shouldn't even be a TODO. Otherwise, scheduled TODOs show up on their schedule, and deadlined TODOs show up on their deadline, and also today's agenda, if you're coming up on the deadline. There are a host of variables that change how a TODO is displayed depending on whether it has a schedule/deadline/timestamp, or one and not the others, or `how close you are to it, etc. Check out variables starting org-agenda-skip-*, org-agenda-ignore-*, org-agenda-include-*, org-deadline-*, org-scheduled-*, there are plenty of ways of screening out TODOs that you don't want to see until you're supposed to see them. Hope that helps, Eric
