Say a company is remodeling and they are having another grand opening after remodel is done.  What is the proper way to phrase it:

Grand Re-Opening
Re-Grand Opening
Something Else

The phrase my company uses drives me nuts so I am wondering if I am wrong or they are.

The first, but I would dispense with the hyphen.

I hope it's the Re-Grand Opening because that's a horrible name!

Yes, people say Regrand opening and it makes me want to struggle someone.

I would say Grand Re-Opening.

I checked my AP Stylebook but I don't see an entry for this situation.



It's annoying me that there appears to be no GIF for the sequence of the multiple banners going up for all the failed openings ... Grand Opening, Grand Re-Opening, Grand Re-Re-Opening, Grand Re-Re-Re-Opening. www.youtube.com/watch?v=w62pZiv8D0Q
