Morphology

eventfulness = eventful (transparent) = event + ful + ness

Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ness' to the adjective 'eventful'; the meaning is directly the quality of being eventful.

Etymology

Eventfulness comes from event ('something that happens') plus the endings -ful ('full of') and -ness ('state of'). So eventfulness is the state of being 'full of happenings', which is why it describes a place or time with a lot of activity.
