A recent cultural event in Algiers became a gateway to Chinese traditions as the China Media Group's 2026 Spring Festival Gala promotional video dazzled local audiences. Held in Algeria's capital this week, the event merged cutting-edge audiovisual technology with live performances to create an immersive celebration of Lunar New Year culture.
Attendees experienced a vibrant program featuring traditional Chinese dance, acrobatics, and instrumental music performed by visiting artists from the Chinese mainland. The showcase culminated in thunderous applause as performers demonstrated centuries-old techniques reinterpreted for modern audiences.
"This fusion of ancient artistry and contemporary production values helps explain China's growing cultural influence," remarked Karim Belkacem, an Algiers university professor attending the event. The promotional materials highlighted how the Spring Festival remains central to family values and renewal themes in Chinese society.
