UTC is enough if we have a single instance of an event. If we have a concept of recurring event ("this event will occur on every Monday 9am"), then it's not enough.

I just wanted to highlight that "time" is a human concept that in informal setting means a lot of things, but when you start to model it formally, it can be more complex than a single timestamp.
