Okay…thanks to a friend who sent me this link: https://stuartfarish.com/advanced-custom-fields-sort-by-field-group-sub-field/

All you have to do is add the field name of the group to the beginning of the subfield. The name of my group is showit_event_dates. So, the code should look something like this:

$args = array (
      'post_type'       => 'showit_events',
      'posts_per_page'  => $num_posts,
      'orderby'         => 'meta_value',
      'meta_key'        => 'showit_event_dates_start_event',
      'order'           => 'DESC'
    );

Hope that helps someone
