An inauguration is the official ceremony where someone starts an important new job, especially a president or other leader taking office for the first time. It's a formal, sometimes grand event, with speeches and promises about what they'll do. You can also use "inauguration" more loosely for the opening ceremony of a big new building or project, though that's less common than the political meaning.
