How to set a custom post type to have viewable future posts

I’ve been able to solve this myself. My entire code for registering the CPT:

<?php
add_action( 'init', 'events_post_type_register' );
function events_post_type_register() {

    $post_type = "events";

    $labels = array(
        'name' => _x('Events', 'post type general name', 'project_X'),
        'singular_name' => _x('Event', 'post type singular name', 'project_X'),
        'add_new' => _x('Add New', 'event', 'project_X'),
        'add_new_item' => __('Add New Event', 'project_X'),
        'edit_item' => __('Edit Event', 'project_X'),
        'new_item' => __('New Event', 'project_X'),
        'all_items' => __('All Events', 'project_X'),
        'view_item' => __('View Event', 'project_X'),
        'search_items' => __('Search Events', 'project_X'),
        'not_found' =>  __('No events found', 'project_X'),
        'not_found_in_trash' => __('No events found in trash', 'project_X'),
        'parent_item_colon' => '',
        'menu_name' => 'Events'
    );

    $args = array(
        'labels' => $labels,
        'public' => true,
        'hierarchical' => false,
        'has_archive' => true,
        'rewrite' => array(
            'with_front' => false,
            'slug' => "news/{$post_type}"
        ),
        'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'thumbnail' )
    );
    register_post_type($post_type, $args);

    remove_action("future_{$post_type}", '_future_post_hook');
    add_action("future_{$post_type}", 'sc_ps_publish_future_events_now', 2, 10);
}

function sc_ps_publish_future_events_now($depreciated, $post) {
    wp_publish_post($post);
}

add_filter('posts_where', 'sc_ps_show_future_events_where', 2, 10);
function sc_ps_show_future_events_where($where, $that) {
    global $wpdb;
    if("events" == $that->query_vars['post_type'] && is_archive())
        $where = str_replace( "{$wpdb->posts}.post_status="publish"", "{$wpdb->posts}.post_status="publish" OR $wpdb->posts.post_status="future"", $where);
    return $where;
}
?>

So to allow posts to be visable to all users even if they are set in the future you need to do the following:

remove_action("future_{$post_type}", '_future_post_hook');
add_action("future_{$post_type}", 'sc_ps_publish_future_events_now', 2, 10);

We remove the action that deals with posting later and apply our own action to force it to be published despite it having a future date with:

wp_publish_post($post);

Then all we now need to do is show future posts on the archive page by filtering posts_where:

function sc_ps_show_future_events_where($where, $that) {
    global $wpdb;
    if("events" == $that->query_vars['post_type'] && is_archive())
        $where = str_replace( "{$wpdb->posts}.post_status="publish"", "{$wpdb->posts}.post_status="publish" OR $wpdb->posts.post_status="future"", $where);
    return $where;
}
