The Sheikh Zayed Festival in Abu Dhabi, a vibrant celebration of Emirati culture and heritage, has secured its place in the 2024 Guinness World Records. The festival's dazzling New Year's Eve extravaganza culminated in the official recognition of four awe-inspiring feats.
The record-breaking night unfolded with a pyrotechnic spectacle unlike any other. Three of the festival's achievements were related to the fireworks display, a mesmerizing display of light and sound that captivated the audience. The first record acknowledged the sheer volume of fireworks launched within a 30-second timeframe. A second record was awarded for the most pyrotechnic pinwheels launched in the same period, creating a mesmerizing vortex of fiery light. The final fireworks record recognized the most repeated firework image formed within 30 seconds, a testament to the meticulous choreography behind the display.
Beyond the explosive brilliance, the festival also secured a record-breaking feat involving cutting-edge technology. A swarm of over 5,000 drones took to the night sky, forming the largest ever recorded Quick Response (QR) code formation. This impressive feat not only pushed the boundaries of drone technology but also served as a unique and interactive element for the festival attendees.
