You can mingle double and singal quotes. So choose one for the PHP
quotes and one for the HTML quotes, HTML will use both interchangably.
For example your string could become:
$var = "<form name='events' ...";
I'd also look at the echo's inside the string, they look like they
shouldn't be there.

The echo's inside the string also aren't necessary. Just use the value
directly when building the string.
