Zombie Walk Cape Town: The Quest for a World Record

What Is the Zombie Walk World Record?

The Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of zombies is an official title awarded to the biggest group of people dressed as zombies in a single location. To qualify, all participants must follow strict guidelines, including:

• Wearing zombie costumes (ripped clothes, special effects makeup, fake blood, etc.)
• Remaining in the designated area for a specific amount of time
• Meeting the minimum attendance number required to break the record

Zombie Walk Cape Town has already proven it can bring thousands of undead enthusiasts together, so this challenge is within reach. But we need you to make it happen!
