Please tell me that 'ag teacht suas' for coming up/upcoming is Béarlachas!

What is the best way to say: 'Here are some of the upcoming events.....' How about 'Cuid de na imeachtaí ag teacht chun cinn ná.....'

Suas shouldn't be used for motion towards you (that would be aníos) so teacht suas* is illogical.

Teacht aníos does exist but only for physical movement:

ag teacht aníos an staighre "coming up the stairs"
ag teacht aníos an bóthar "coming up the road"

For "forthcoming", De Bhaldraithe gives chugam (chugat, etc.) and simply ag teacht.

I'd say Cuid de na himeachtaí ag teacht ná ... or Cuid de na himeachtaí seo chugainn ná ... (or Ar na himeachtaí seo chugainn atá ...)

Tá mé ag teacht suas leat!
I'm catching up with you! / I'm coming up alongside you...

na himeachtai atá ag teacht suas....
the events that are coming up

Perhaps béarlachas... I know there are other ways of putting these but I'm too lazy... nature and language always finds a way... lol...
But on the other hand you should hear the version of the English language spoken around hereabouts? Talk about 'gaelachas'... LOL...
