'take place' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for occur that I've seen before include "Go on" , "exist" , "Happen - to come to mind" , "Happen, take place" , "Befall" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, the LA Times, the Penny Press, The Irish Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Newsday, the Universal, The Times, The Telegraph, the King Feature Syndicate, The Star Tribune and The Guardian.
