guinness world record

This year’s Mighty Texas Dog Walk, on Saturday, April 7th at Auditorium Shores is more than walking the most dogs for a third Guinness World Record for Texas.

Organizers have added three New Guinness World Record attempts: Biggest Fur Ball...

Last year’s crazy cupcake party had us all smashed into One 2 One Bar on a hot summer day stuffing ourselves with sugar.

This year’s event expands to Le Cordon Bleu, 3110 Esperanza Crossing Suite 100 and The Westin, 11301 Domain Drive.

Vendors and activities located at the Le Cordon Bleu will be held indoors while the Cupcake Cannon and Pinata will be held outdoors at the Westin.

Here’s Saturday’s schedule:

The fifth annual Silicon Labs Austin Marathon Relay this September is inaugurating a new Guinness World Record award for "fastest overall marathon team."

Did you know there is a Guinness World Record for Largest Guitar Ensemble? Well, there is. And it’s not held by the Gypsy Kings.

Actually, it’s held by “the Germans,” according to a press release we received today.

Regardless of who holds the record, it seems like Texas should own the damn thing.

That’s why the Kerrville Folk Festival and Cheatham Street Warehouse have teamed up with historic Luckenbach to break the record while benefiting the Voices of a Grateful Nation Project, a group that assists the troops and their families.
