To retrieve a specific post type in WordPress filtered by a custom (or built-in) taxonomy, use the following snippet:

$Posts = get_posts(array(
	'post_type' => 'my-post-type',
	'order' => 'ASC',
	'tax_query' => array(
	array(
			'taxonomy' => 'my-taxonomy',
			'field' => 'slug',
			'terms' => 'event'
		)
	),
	'meta_query' => array(
		'AND',
		array(
			'type' => 'NUMERIC',
			'key' => 'event_date',
			'compare' => '<', 'value' => time()
		),
		array(
			'type' => 'NUMERIC',
			'key' => 'is_archive',
			'compare' => '==',
			'value' => 0
		)
	)
));
