You can use the Graph API to do this. There are two scenarios that may be of interest: (1) For an event, you want to list if the user is attending, and (2) for a user, you want to list the event's they're attending. You need the user_events permission for both scenarios.

For (1): HTTP GET /EVENT_ID/attending. This will return an array of objects with {id, name, rsvp_status} fields. Look for the User ID you're interested in and, if they've RSVP'd, then the rsvp_status field will tell you if they're attending.

For (2): HTTP GET /USER_ID/events. This will return all the events for the user with several fields, but also {id, name, rsvp_status} fields as above. This time, look for the Event ID you're interested in, and then the rsvp_status field will tell you if the current user is attending, not attending, maybe attending, or hasn't RSVP'd (i.e. rsvp_status is unsure).
