Here is the complete working code:

Very first, you need to create event table in phpmyadmin and I am also inserting some test data and here is table structure:
CREATE TABLE events (
id int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
title varchar(250) NULL,
event_date timestamp NULL
);

INSERT INTO `events` (`id`, `title`, `event_date`) VALUES
(1, 'Walk-In', '2018-06-5 11:07:27'),
(2, 'Online Booking', '2018-06-6 02:37:05'),
(3, 'Facebook Booking', '2018-06-7 04:01:00')

 Here is the complete code for Insert and fetch fullcalendar events from mysql database and you can paste that code into your php file:

<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "root";
$dbname = "fullcalendarevents";

// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
} 
if(isset($_POST["submit"]) == "submit" && isset($_POST["eventTitle"]) != "")
  {
    $sql = "INSERT INTO events (title, event_date)
        VALUES ('".$_POST['eventTitle']."', '".$_POST['eventDate']."')";
    if (mysqli_query($conn,$sql)) {
        echo "New event added successfully";
    } else {
        echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
    }

  }
  //echo "Connected successfully";
$sql = "SELECT title, event_date as start FROM events";
$result = mysqli_query($conn,$sql); 
$myArray = array();
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
// output data of each row
    while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
        $myArray[] = $row;
    }

} 
else 
{
    echo "0 results";
}
?>
