In a press release sent out today, MSC Cruises announced that thrill-seekers looking to get their name in the record books will have more opportunities than ever, as they plan to roll out its GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS entertainment program across its entire fleet.
Guests have had the chance to break official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS through a variety of activities ever since MSC Cruises introduced the entertainment program on two of its ships, MSC Seascape and MSC World Europa, in March of last year. It is now available on 12 ships and will be rolled out across of the company’s fleet within the next year.
Steve Leatham, VP of Entertainment at MSC Cruises, said: “The program has been hugely popular among guests, both adults and children alike. To date, MSC Cruises guests and crew have broken 30 GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS. From being the fastest to pull 100 meters of rope (about the length of a football field), to being the quickest to complete 20 chair rotations in under 21 seconds, or putting the most socks on one foot in under 30 seconds, guests have attained record-breaking glory in a variety of quirky ways.
We’re excited to be able to offer these activities on more of our ships for guests of all ages to enjoy. The extended partnership is part of MSC Cruises’ broader strategy to further elevate their onboard immersive entertainment programs and provide carefully crafted entertainment for guests of all tastes.”
Matteo Mancini, Senior Manager Family Entertainment, said: “Guinness World Records exemplifies the kind of successful activities we offer on MSC Cruises’ ships, engaging the entire family. It’s heartwarming to see all ages come together to compete and play. On our ships, everyone can be a star, and Guinness World Records now is not only in the book or in the TV show but has become an unmissable onboard live experience for all.”
While cruising at sea, guests can participate in record-breaking activities during the day and audition for the main evening show, where the lucky finalists can demonstrate their talents and aim to become the next iconic record holder.
Any new record breakers are verified by a GWR Official Adjudicator and awarded a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS certificate, giving guests ultimate bragging rights and incredible memories to look back on.
So far, the program is available on 12 ships positioned all around the world, including MSC World Europa, MSC Euribia, MSC Meraviglia, MSC Grandiosa, MSC Virtuosa, MSC Seashore, MSC Seascape, MSC Divina, MSC Magnifica, MSC Belissima, MSC Seaside and MSC Splendida.
