Yo solo disfrutando del evento.
Avoid adding a subject pronoun with the gerund; say 'Estoy disfrutando' only if you need a full sentence.

Cultural Tip
In Spanish, the gerund is often used without an auxiliary verb to describe what someone is doing right now, especially in informal contexts. 'Solo' without an accent means 'only/just', while 'solo' with an accent (sólo) historically meant the same but is now largely optional. Keep the tone light and informal; this phrase would sound out of place in a formal report.
