Tripura Tourism has announced the winners of the “Focus Tripura – Reel Making Contest”, which was organised through the MyGov Tripura platform to encourage short-form videos about the state’s tourism appeal.
The contest invited citizens, students, travellers, youth and content creators from across Tripura to create original reels highlighting the state’s natural beauty, culture, heritage and architecture. It was open from 3 June 2026 to 3 August 2026 and received 79 submissions.
A reel is a short video format commonly used on social media platforms to present a place, event or idea in a quick and visually engaging way. In this contest, participants used that format to present Tripura as a travel destination and to bring attention to places, traditions and visuals associated with the state.
According to the official announcement, entries were assessed as per the prescribed guidelines and evaluation criteria. The selected reels will also have the opportunity to be promoted on the official social media platforms of Tripura Tourism and MyGov Tripura, giving the creators wider visibility and helping the tourism campaign reach more viewers online.

Contest themes
Participants were asked to submit reels based on themes such as the beauty of Tripura in monsoon, the culture and heritage of Tripura, and architectural marvels of the state. These themes gave creators a broad way to show the state through landscapes, local traditions, built heritage and travel experiences.
The announcement said the contest was intended to help citizens present Tripura’s tourism potential through engaging short videos. By inviting entries from residents, students, travellers and content creators, the campaign encouraged people to document the state from their own viewpoint and share visual stories that may interest future visitors.
Tripura Tourism congratulated the winners and thanked all participants for sharing their perspective and creativity through the contest. The selected reels are expected to help showcase Tripura’s tourist attractions to a wider audience through official digital channels.
