you can try this
[events_list limit='10' orderby='event_start_date,event_start_time' order='ASC' year='2012']
------
[/events_list]
Thank you for your answer, Agelonwl.
But, as far as I know, the attributes you suggest refer to event dates, not to publishing dates of those events in the website.
By looking at the source code and the database I have noticed that queries of the widget should include info from the wp_posts table in order to achieve my purpose.
I have solved the question by creating a new widget, but maybe you could consider develop this feature in future versions of the plugin.
Thank you again.

you could use the recent posts widgets on here that support custom post types for now
Marcus, I’m not sure to understand you. Do you mean using the standard recent posts widget provided by WordPress? I can’t see any customizing option other than the number of posts to show. How do I link it to events posts? The current output is blank as I have no “normal” posts. Or you were talking about any other plugin or widget?
Thank you!

Just in case it could be of somebody’s interest, I just found this plugin: Special recent posts.
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/special-recent-posts/
It deals with custom post types. In my case, it has been able to create a list of recently added events (obvious tip: custom post type name is “event”).
Unfortunately (and logically), it displays the publishing date, not the event start date. So I’ll keep using my own widget (as said above) or maybe will hack this one, that must be better coded… for sure. 🙂
