Wiktionary

One way to picture upcoming: something already on the calendar, moving towards you. It sits in front of the noun (the upcoming election), and it points only forward — an event that has not happened yet but is close enough to name.

可以想成 upcoming 是「已經排在行事曆上、正朝你走過來」的那件事。它放在名詞前面（the upcoming election），而且只指向前方——那件事還沒發生，但近到已經可以講出名字了。
