Featuring a series of performances including singing, dancing, magic shows, martial arts and opera, the event was aimed at showing the world the young, modern, multi-dimensional elements that make the city what it is, Shenzhen Mayor Xu Qin said at a ceremony at the Baogang Stage.

More than 400 artists from Shenzhen gave performances, including the Shenzhen Orchestra, Shenzhen Senior High School students and Shenzhen Daweiwu Dance Troupe.
