Honestly, I don’t know why it’s not working, unless it has something to do with the mix of meta settings. Try this

$today = date('Ymd');
$thePosts = new WP_Query(array(
'post_type'        => 'post',
'posts_per_page'   => 10,
'meta_query'       => array(
	array(
		'key'      => 'event_end',
		'value'    => '".$today."',
		'compare'  => '>'
	),
    'date_clause' => array(
      'key' => 'event_start'
      'compare' => 'EXISTS'
    )
),
'orderby' => array('date_clause' => 'DESC'),
'post_status' => 'publish',
));
