• The new partnership further illustrates MSC Cruises’ commitment to providing world-class entertainment onboard

Geneva, Switzerland, 13 March 2023 – MSC Cruises announced today they are continuing to expand their thrilling new entertainment offerings at sea with Guinness World Records, the renowned officials for incredible record-breaking titles worldwide. The new programme is a chance for guests to test their mettle and – if they’re lucky – get their name in the record books. Activities will include awe-inspiring live shows, inviting guests to attempt to break Guinness World Records and create truly unforgettable memories in the process.

The new partnership is part of MSC Cruises’ broader strategy to further elevate their onboard immersive entertainment programmes for guests. While cruising at sea, guests can participate in the activity during the day and audition for the grand evening show, where the lucky finalists can demonstrate their talents and aim to become the next iconic record holder.

Steve Leatham, Global Head of Entertainment at MSC Cruises, said, “We’re delighted to join forces with Guinness World Records. We’re always on the hunt for new and engaging concepts for our guests.

Marco Frigatti, SVP Consultancy at Guinness World Records, said, “There’s no better way to bring the magic of Guinness World Records to life than to host a live show like this. Families exploring the world on an MSC Cruise can explore the incredible world of record-breaking at the same time – and even become a part of it too!”
