Goa Tourism Development Corporation (GTDC) plans to organise Mayem Mahotsav on April 5. The event follows a growing trend by the tourism department to organise events beyond the national capital and in the hinterland. There will be performances from Goan artists and singers, group dance performances, folk dances, and a live band lined up for that day. The GTDC wants to give a traditional theme for the event, which is part of the ongoing efforts to highlight the heritage of Goa, said an official. The one-day event will give the state an opportunity to showcase the Mayem lake and other î ”adventure activities around the area. It is most likely to be organised on govt Polytechnic Grounds at Mayem. It may see some singers from the national music scene  performing, according to a GTDC official. It will be held at the Goa Polytechnics Grounds, Mayem, on the outskirts of the state capital.
