Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from 'upcoming' (scheduled to occur in the near future) combined with 'event' (an occurrence); the adjective+noun composition yields the intended sense without metaphor or idiomatic shift. This is a common, predictable pattern across languages and would be easily understood by a B1 learner who knows the two constituent words.
Etymology
The compound upcoming event comes from the idea of something upcoming, which is 'coming up' soon, and a planned event, which is a 'happening'. So it means a planned 'happening' that will take place in the near future.
