The award was received in a celebratory atmosphere by representatives of the three entities. The pavilion was widely praised by both festival organizers and visitors for its outstanding design and rich, diverse programming.
Throughout the festival, the Egyptian pavilion hosted daily events, including high-level panel discussions, bilateral meetings, and large-scale receptions, all of which attracted strong international attendance.

Ali abo deshish Today, museums and archaeological sites across the city of Alexandria witnessed a massive influx of thousands of visitors, both Egyptian nationals and foreign residents.

The Royal Jewelry Museum attracted over 2,000 visitors, and the Kom El Shoqafa archaeological site saw more than 3,000 visitors. Dr. Mohamed Ismail Khaled, Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, noted that crowds of visitors had lined up since the early morning hours outside the archaeological sites and museums, reflecting the deep awareness among Egyptians of all age groups about the importance of connecting more closely with their ancient heritage. The Secretary-General emphasized that the flow of visitors throughout the day was well-organized at all sites and museums across the governorate. Visitors were allowed entry in groups to ensure that the large crowds did not disrupt the experience or movement within the sites.
