  The Guinness world record for the largest gathering of people dressed as snowmen was 333, in an event organised by Hope House Children's Hospices (UK) in Oswestry, Shropshire, UK.

  Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the most lights lit simultaneously on a Christmas tree: 194,672 - achieved by Kiwanis Malmedy / Haute Fagnes Belgium in Malmedy, Belgium.
  
  Many opted for traditional woollen jumpers featuring snowmen and reindeer, while others were more adventurous with tinsel and glitter-glue, creating their own designs.
