Org.json.jsonarray could not be converted to jsonobject error

I tried to fix this error for 2 days, searched and tried several types of coding from stackoverflow.com. I checked my JSON http://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/#jsonformatter . But I still can’t understand why my code is doing this. I have 3 files. MainACtivity.java, which should get information from my test.json files on my server, and then process it in Events.java. Events.java just displays information, but the application does not do it this far.

UPDATED CODE IN THE CASE WHICH A FAVORITE IS NECESSARY FOR USE.

My mistake:

 01-14 22:18:08.165: E/JSON Response:(419): > { "event":[ 
    01-14 22:18:08.165: E/JSON Response:(419):      {

    01-14 22:18:08.165: E/JSON Response:(419):   ] 
    01-14 22:18:08.165: E/JSON Response:(419): }

Json, Json Arrays.

JsonObjects:

jsonobject = JSONfunctions.getJSONfromURL("URL Here");

JsonArray JsonObjects:
