Simple thing is to create a page alias and have the repeater use that alias as a query string. For instance /Events/{EventType} as the alias on the Events page.

Then in each button you'd create a link that was simply <a href"/Events/Current">Current</a> and <a href="/Events/Upcoming">Upcoming</a>. This would be assuming the categories you stored were "Current" and "Upcoming". Then in your repeater where clause, enter something like EventsCategory = '{%EventType%}'

Each time you click the button, it will simply send you to that link and the repeater will get the values based on the query string.

Hide the elements you don't want to show by using some css display: none;
