If I select the upcoming button I am directed to the registration page that included the register now button. I do have an older long running event that does show the “Register Now” button on the first page. I cannot locate the source of the inconsistency.
To clarify, I have 3 events scheduled. All open for registration. On the first page from the registration link there is a list of events and one of them shows the ticket details and the register now option.

1) You go into the Avada theme options panel > Blog > and set the Excerpt or Full Blog Content option to Full Content and Save changes. This will affect both the Event Espresso events archive and regular blog post archives. If you want the blog post archives to display excerpts and not the full content, you can do option 2.
2) You make a copy of the Avada theme’s archive.php file and rename the copy to be archive-espresso_events.php. Then you open up the copy and look for this code:
