The 9th All-Africa Games (Arabic: الألعاب الأفريقية التاسعة; French: 9e Jeux africains), also known as Algiers 2007 (Arabic: الجزائر 2007), took place from 11 to 23 July 2007 in Algiers, the capital city of Algeria. Algiers became the first city to hold All-Africa Games for a second time. The 1978 All-Africa Games were also held there. Besides Algeria, only Nigeria had hosted the event twice, but with different host cities. 4,793 athletes from 52 nations took part in the 2007 Games.[1]
