On December 5, Chinese Ambassador to Zimbabwe Zhou Ding addressed the Grand Finale of “Dreamstar Zimbabwe” 2025, which brought around 800 attendees.

Ambassador Zhou stated that with the support of the Chinese Embassy in Zimbabwe, the local Chinese community and various sectors of society, the “Dreamstar Zimbabwe” has become an important platform for discovering local artistic talents and helping Zimbabwean youth fulfill their artistic dreams. While protecting and promoting Zimbabwean local art, it has also effectively promoted cultural exchanges between China and Zimbabwe. Next year has been designated as the "China-Africa Year of People-to-People Exchanges", and we look forward to working together with all sectors of the Zimbabwean community to further promote cultural exchanges between China and Zimbabwe and enhance mutual understanding between the two peoples.

At the finals, 19 teams presented various performances such as singing and dancing, instrumental music and painting, fully showcasing the vitality of local art. In the end, the “Panda” dance group won the championship with a wonderful performance that combined modern choreography with African traditional elements.

This event was organized by the China-Zimbabwe Exchange Center, a non-governmental organization (NGO).
