					<?php 

			$args = array(
				'post_id' => 'new',
                'post_title' => $_POST['title'],
                'post_status' => 'draft',
                'meta_query' => array(
                               array(// custom fields of mine
                                  'key'=>'Event Name',
                                  'value'=> $_POST['event_name']

Looks like you need to include the ‘new_post’ parameter.

The last example on this page should help: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf_form/
