Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from combining 'sale' (a promotional period with discounts) and 'event' (an occurrence or occasion): a 'sales event' is simply an occasion when items are sold at reduced prices. This noun+ noun composition is a common, compositional pattern cross-linguistically and should be immediately understandable to B1 learners who know the constituents.
Etymology
Sales event comes from shops holding a special event for sales, like a busy market day with signs and short offers. That's why sales event means a short time when goods are sold at 'special prices' or for a 'limited time'.
