Answer 1

It depends on how you are declared this route. You can specify model parameter and with laravel route binding you can inject model in your controller method https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/routing#customizing-the-key

In routes/web.php:

Route::get('/events/{event:name}', [EventController::class, 'show']);

And in EventController controller you can use something like that:

public function show(Event $event)
{
    // do something with $event
}

Or if it not suits to you can get last element from request()->segments()

Answer 2

Multiple ways to do that. You can use request helper for it. Below two ways with requesthelper:

1. request()->segment(count(request()->segments()))
2. last(request()->segments())
