Princess Cruises has set a new Guinness World Record for the “World’s Largest Pizza Party,” celebrated across multiple venues aboard its fleet.
The event, in partnership with Chef Tony Gemignani, a 13-time World Pizza Champion, saw guests indulging in over 60,000 slices of pizza.
It was held across July 12th and 13th, across 16 ships in the fleet. This meant that the party was held across three continents at once, over eight different time zones.
Chef Tony Gemignani introduced two exclusive pizzas featuring ingredients like Soppressata sausage, hot honey, agave pesto, and fresh goat cheese. These gourmet pizzas were a highlight of the event.
Overall, the event involved over 6,500 lb of pizza dough and over 2,300 lb of cheese!
“Princess is about delivering great experiences, and there is no more important element than pizza. While Princess has long been known for having the best pizza at sea, we decided to take it up an entirely new level with legendary Tony Gemignani and also set a Guinness World Record title in the process.“
John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises
The event was verified by an adjudicator from Guinness World Records, meaning that it took the prize from the previous winner – a pizza party held in Tulsa, Oklahoma in early 2023.
