"On Saturday, October 25, Wollman Rink is calling on 600 skaters to lace up and help break the standing record of 523 participants set in 2014. The 30-minute lesson will be led by the rink's Skate School instructors and welcomes skaters of various ages and skill levels. If you've ever dreamed of being part of a world record (or just witnessing one), this is your chance to join in the fun and celebrate 75 years of skating in Central Park."
"We're delighted that during our 70th anniversary, Wollman Rink has accepted the challenge to be part of it and attempt this long-standing record title as part of their own anniversary celebrations, said Nicole Pando, VP of Americas at Guinness World Records. Guinness World Records has a mission to document the incredible, and we look forward to the opportunity to crown a new generation of record holders in an event that aligns with our core values such as passion, inclusiveness, and, of course, fun!"
