Prerelease tournaments (or prereleases) are events held before the release of an expansion set. The tournament format is sealed deck. Players build decks with cards from the upcoming release set. Prerelease cards have been given out at Prereleases since Tempest. Players build a deck with a minimum of 40 cards from booster packs received. The unused cards are considered their sideboard for the tournament.
Shards of Alara will have the most locations for a prerelease as Wizards has let local stores run the tournaments.
