An event that is certain to happen has a probability of 1(So yes an event can have a probability of 1).
 An event that cannot possibly happen has a probability of zero. (examples  below)
 
--If it is Thursday, the probability that tomorrow is Friday is certain, therefore the probability is 1.
--If you are sixteen, the probability of you turning seventeen on your next birthday is 1. It's a certain event.
