Probably the best advice is to use the code widget and just drop the code into it: <script type="text/javascript">document.write(new Date().getFullYear())</script> especially with JavaScript.
I think the custom widget doesn't like JavaScript

Hi James,
Does there need to be anything in the plain text field? I made the tag but unfortunately when I put it on the event website, it shows up as empty.
Thanks for your insight on this!

Baylee,
If you have access to Custom Data Tags. Admin > General > Custom Data Tags you should be able to create your own.
We use a custom data tag for our current year as well.
Name: Copyright Year
Type: Content Block
Code: COPYRIGHTYEAR
Tag: {[A-CUSTOM TAG:COPYRIGHTYEAR]}
HTML: <script type="text/javascript">document.write(new Date().getFullYear())</script>
Hope that helps
