Over the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Weekend (June 2nd – 5th), more than 100 Camping and Caravanning Club sites across the UK hosted one of the biggest celebrations of camping that this country has even seen.
Thousands of campers and caravanners joined the Friendly Club to set a Guinness World Record for the most number of people wearing paper crowns across multiple locations.
This ambitious event was timed to coincide with National Camping and Caravanning Week (June 2nd – 8th), so the Club went all out to lay on plenty of entertainment and attractions to get people outside and camping.
In this video, CaravanTimes heads to Norfolk to meet the team behind this incredibly ambitious event and we find out how they managed to organise a party for thousands of people.
We also reveal the grand total and speak to some of the campers and caravanners who will be able to say that they made history on a sunny day in June.
