Hi Barry&Cliff,
Thanks for the effort. Unfortunately, isn't working for me at all. Neither I get search results on date event or search box event, all I get is a redirect to the homepage without any results.
I'll be aware of this thread if you improve it and fix some bugs.
Thanks again for your work

@taocroro, this code worked for me to display the Tribe Bar and for the search box to display events. Other than that, I didn't test it further and it's really just to be used as a starting point if you want to try to do something custom.

This probably needs an update to work with newer version of The Events Calendar.

add_shortcode( 'tribe_bar_anywhere', function() {
    if ( ! class_exists( 'Tribe__Events__Bar' ) ) {
        return false;
    }
    wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
    tribe_asset_enqueue('bootstrap-datepicker');
    tribe_asset_enqueue('calendar-script');
    tribe_asset_enqueue('jquery-resize');
    tribe_asset_enqueue('events-css');
    tribe( 'tec.bar' )->load_script();
    ob_start();
    tribe_get_template_part( 'modules/bar' );
    return ob_get_clean();
});
