Most Santas skating in a Conga Line-Warwick
Castle sets world record
WARWICK CASTLE, UK -- To celebrate the opening
of the UK’s first real ice trail at the Warwick
Castle
, 142 skating Santas set the new world record
for the Most
Santas skating in a Conga Line
.
The Santas were members of the public who donned
the red suits to add some Christmas sparkle to the event in
the castle’s Peacock Garden. ( enlarge

They broke the previous Guinness world record
on their third attempt—an earlier one failed when an excited
young Santa waved to the watching crowd and another when a
skinny Santa’s trousers fell down.
The castle forms a dramatic backdrop to
the new 250m track through Peacock Garden, which is adorned
with lights.
There's also a Victorian steam fair
with Noah's Ark ride and a carousel, carol singers and festive
storytelling.
Inside the castle, opulent decorations include
a 25ft Christmas tree decorated with 1,000 lights in the Great
Hall and seasonal plants from mistletoe to poinsettia.
