preopening

/pɹɪˈoʊpənɪŋ/ adj

Occurring before or in anticipation of an opening

Word Origin 'Pre-' (before) + 'opening' — so preopening is something that happens before the opening. 'Open' comes from Proto-Germanic 'upanaz', related to 'up' — the idea of lifting up a lid. The same root gives 'uphold' (hold up), 'upset' (set up, overturn), and 'upright' (right up). The PIE *upo- also gives 'over' and 'above'.
