WAVES Doc Bazaar 2026 to Open Alongside 19th Mumbai International Film Festival, Entries Invited Until May 15

WAVES Doc Bazaar 2026 will take place from June 16–18 in Mumbai alongside the 19th Mumbai International Film Festival. The platform invites entries for its Viewing Room and Work-In-Progress Lab until May 15, offering filmmakers mentorship, exposure, and global industry access.

 

The second edition of WAVES Doc Bazaar is set to be held from June 16 to 18 in Mumbai, coinciding with the 19th Mumbai International Film Festival at the NFDC Complex. Positioned as a premier platform for documentary, animation, and short filmmakers, the event aims to foster collaboration, mentorship, market access, and global visibility for emerging and established creators.

WAVES Doc Bazaar is designed as a comprehensive ecosystem to support filmmakers at various stages of production. A major highlight of the event is the Viewing Room, where recently completed or post-production documentary, short, and animation films will be presented to a curated audience of registered delegates, enabling creators to showcase their work to industry professionals and potential collaborators.

Another key segment, the Work-In-Progress Lab, is tailored specifically for documentary and animation projects in the rough-cut stage. Conducted in a closed-door format, the lab offers selected participants an opportunity to receive detailed feedback, expert guidance, and mentorship from experienced filmmakers, editors, and international industry experts. This initiative is aimed at refining projects and preparing them for wider audience engagement and distribution opportunities.

Entries for both the Viewing Room and the Work-In-Progress Lab are currently open, with the submission deadline set for May 15. Interested filmmakers are encouraged to apply within the stipulated timeframe to secure participation in this significant industry platform.
