HI,

So i have created this

//Events
// Our custom post type function
function create_posttype() {

    register_post_type( 'events',
    // CPT Options
        array(
            'labels' => array(
                'name' => __( 'Events Page' ),
                'singular_name' => __( 'event' )

            ),
            'public' => true,
            'has_archive' => true,
            'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'event'),
            'menu_icon'           => 'dashicons-calendar-alt', // picture on the left [pic]Portfolio
        )
    );
}
// Hooking up our function to theme setup
add_action( 'init', 'create_posttype' );





if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {

    acf_add_options_page();

}

And now i have in admin bar 'Events' that are connected with custome fields, and i have three fields, title, image and content.

Now here my loop that i want to display this:

 <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-9">
                 <div class="row second">
                    <main class="col-md-12 margin-bottom-20-mobile">
                       <div class="same-height-1 padding-15 margin-bottom-15">

                        <?php

                        $args = array(
                          'posty_type'  => 'events'
                        );
                        $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );

                        ?>

                          <!-- Loop -->
                          <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
                             <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1> 

                             <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>

                             <p><?php the_content(); ?></p>

                             <br>
                         <?php endwhile; else : ?>

                          <h1>Oh no!</h1>
                          <p>No content is appearing for this page!</p>

                          <?php endif ?>
                       </div>
                    </main><!-- /col-* -->

                 </div><!-- row second -->
              </div><!-- /col-md-9 -->

And this displays my blog posts.. why ..

<?php
/*
   Template Name: Events page
*/
?>

First thing I noticed is that your argument on your WP_Query class is posty_type, and I believe it should just be post_type
