With the monsoon in full swing in Goa, venturing into the outdoors may seem a tad unappealing at times. But, if you still want to indulge in some activity, check out these two events which are not only held indoors, but are interesting, too.

Musical accompaniment will be provided by Orlando de Noronha and Carlos Meneses.
