Which of the following is the venue of the 20th WAVES Film Bazaar?
- A.Taj Cidade de Goa Horizon
- B.Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Indoor Stadium
- C.Kala Academy, Panaji
- D.Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Taj Cidade de Goa Horizon. The 20th edition of WAVES Film Bazaar will be held there from 20 to 24 November 2026, alongside the 57th International Film Festival of India in Goa. Options B and C name other halls that candidates may loosely associate with film events, but neither has been given as the venue of this edition of the market. Option D, Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, is wrong because it is a convention centre in the capital, while the bazaar is held in Goa beside the film festival. Candidates should hold together the four details of the market: its edition, its dates, its venue and the festival it accompanies. The programmes offered there include the Co-Production Market, the NFDC Screenwriters' Lab, the Work-in-Progress Lab, the Viewing Room, Market Screenings, the Producers' Lab and the Knowledge Series, and the market was begun by the National Film Development Corporation in 2007.
