eventful

Full of incidents

Eventful describes a period of time filled with notable occurrences or significant happenings: It's been an eventful week.

The word usually implies variety and importance rather than mere busyness—an eventful day contains things worth remarking on, not just activities.

It can carry positive or negative connotations depending on context: an eventful career, an eventful flight that included turbulence and delays.
