Guinness World Records 2025 Book

We understand that many families were anticipating the release of the Guinness World Records 2025 book as a keepsake for our record earlier this year. The team at Guinness World Records have informed us that due to the timing of the event and the publishing schedule, the St Stephen’s School record for “most people launching confetti cannons simultaneously” will feature in the 2026 book which will be published at the end of 2025.

In the meantime, if you would like a personal memento of the day, you are able to purchase a personalised Certificate of Participation at https://gwrstore.com/collections/certificates-of-participation?page=1
