Carrefour Belgium set a Guinness World Record for the most people making heart‑shaped hand gestures at a single event — a record‑breaking moment that also helped raise funds for charity.
The record attempt took place during Carrefour’s Family Day at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels. Thousands of participants gathered to form the heart‑shaped gesture in unison, capturing global attention and earning official recognition from Guinness World Records. Independent witnesses counted 3,280 people making the synchronized gesture for the required time, securing the title and highlighting the power of collective action for a good cause.
Beyond the spectacle, Carrefour used the record attempt to support SOS Children’s Village, donating the proceeds from the event to the charity as part of its ongoing philanthropic efforts. The combination of community spirit, family fun and fundraising made the accomplishment especially meaningful.
The record adds another memorable achievement to Carrefour Belgium’s list of world‑record milestones and underscores how symbolic gestures can bring people together on a global stage.
