This summer, the streets of Bristol will be buzzing with excitement as the city prepares to host an ambitious event aiming to set the world record for the largest-ever summer tea party.
The initiative, organized by the Bristol Community Foundation, is set to bring together thousands of residents and visitors in an attempt to break the existing world record for the largest tea party ever held. The event will take place on June 20th in the heart of the city, with a target goal of 15,000 participants gathered to sip tea, enjoy pastries, and socialize in a historic outdoor gathering.
“This is a wonderful opportunity to bring people together in a fun, relaxed environment while also raising awareness for several important local causes,” said event organizer Sarah Jameson. “It’s not just about breaking the record, but also about fostering a sense of community and celebration.”
Participants will be invited to dress in their best summer tea party attire, and the event promises an afternoon full of tea, music, and family-friendly activities. With an array of cakes, scones, and finger sandwiches, the tea party will showcase local vendors and artisans, contributing to the region’s economy while promoting a sense of unity and togetherness.
The tea party record attempt has garnered the support of local businesses, community groups, and charities, who will be offering free resources and entertainment for attendees. Proceeds from the event will benefit local food banks and youth programs, with the goal of helping those in need while creating an unforgettable experience for all involved.
“We’ve been planning this for months, and the response from the community has been fantastic,” said Jameson. “This is a chance to break a record, yes, but it’s also an opportunity to make a real difference in our city.”
Local schools, corporate partners, and community organizations are all set to participate, and families are encouraged to join in the celebration. For those unable to attend in person, the event will also be streamed live on social media, allowing people from all over the world to join in the excitement and watch the record attempt unfold.
As the date draws closer, anticipation is growing, and Bristol residents are already making plans to bring their best tea cups and positive energy to the event. With the support of the entire city, the hope is to serve up a new world record and make summer 2025 one for the history books.
