EVT is a binary event format used by Atlus in Persona 5. It is used to setup cameras, objects, animations, dialog and more in cutscenes where you can't control the character. In other circumstances where dialog is shown but you still briefly control the character, those scenes are likely using BF instead.

Location
Persona 5's EVTs can be found in the PAC files in Data.cpk (P5)\Event.

Format
The beginning of an EVT file is comprised of event parameters (such as duration), followed by object definitions (object ID, type, resource IDs, animation IDs). After those, commands make use of the resource ids to set positions, play animations and show messages. Each command has its own specific parameters and a short descriptor (e.g. MSD_). Below are a list of all commands and their functions (to the best of our knowledge).
