You may have found a solution or moved on.

For anyone looking to do something similar what you need to do is edit the template that displays the event, for example single-event.php. In the template you would get the post from the relationship field and display the content of the post rather than the event. You should probably add a canonical tag as well to mitigate duplicate content.

Another alternative would be to get the post from the relationship field and then redirect the request to the post. This would probably be a better solution as it would avoid duplicate content.

An even better alternative would be to edit the theme template that displays the links to the events and modify them at that point to link directly to the posts instead of the events.
