Hrm...you can usually find what you lack by looking at past event. See what parts of the event that are difficult to you to find what you need to improve on, but here's a general summary from a quick glimpse.

DD: Wow, color me impressed. You have very nice DDs and you should be set for the time being; but there are always areas to improve in. You might one a few more OASW DDs because devs love putting sub maps in event, and level up yukikaze because of her nuking potential.

CL: CLs play a bit of a minor role in events, but having a couple strong ones never hurts. I'm a bit conflicted as of why you kai ni'd yura instead of abukuma since she's a weaker version of abubear (though if you just like her, I don't blame you). Kai ni Isuzu as soon as you can, seeing that you lack any other ships to do OASW...or else submarine hime will come and haunt you for the event.

CLT: Get them all, level them up.

CA: Maya kai ni, get it! Last event we actually see some major usage of CAs so I'm a bit concerned with the fact you only have a couple decently-leveled CAs. For short term solutions go for Atago and Takao, but on the long term you would want to have the Myoukou sisters all kai ni'd along with Choukai if possible (and hey, you may even be able to grab a Pudding for the next event :3)

CAV: Generally you will want at least 4 to 5 CAVs in your base, as the devs sometime loves to put high air power maps that ban CVLs and CVs; resulting in you relying on your AVs and CAVs to deal with the enemy planes. Having them at good levels and giving them proper planes will save you a lot of time and resources.

CVL: Pretty good, just get junyou up to kai ni and you'll be set (though don't see RJ...oh well).

CV: A bit of a mix of good and bad; it's nice that you got both cranes at good level along with Kaga, but you need to get Akagi, Hiryuu, Souryuu up. Especially Hiryuu and Souryuu because they come with one of the best DB and TB in the game.

Other Ships: Nothing really much to say, I level up my subs in Orel and 4-2 in my resource farming runs. Try to level up Mizuho as she is currently your only AVs, and get Akashi up to 35 ASAP as it unlocks more arsenal upgrades and an extra repair facility for passive healing.

Equipments: I'm not an expert on this field so...might want to wait for a more proper answer. However areas of weakness I spotted include lack of AP shells, some better ASW gears, and LBAS. More AP shells (at least 4 or 5) so your battleship will be able to deal more damage, ASW since your fleet lack any decent ships to counter enemy subs, and you need more LBAS planes. Try using the recipe 240/260/10/261 to craft some type 96 LBAS planes, and every quarter there will be a quest where you can convert an type 96 to a type 1 LBAS plane, make sure to take advatnage of that.
