Opportunity to do something (8)

I believe the answer is:

occasion

(Other definitions for occasion that I've seen before include "Opportunity" , "Special event or celebration" , "Cocoa's in (anag.)" , "Special event; reason" , "A special event, or the time it happens" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
