A Correct answer
Explanation

The event is singular, so it requires the singular verb form 'is held' not 'are held'. The passive voice 'is held' is appropriate because the event receives the action - it doesn't hold itself. The sentence could also use active voice future 'will be held' but 'will held' is grammatically incorrect.
