Travelers aboard multiple cruise ships recently helped break a world record for the largest pizza party. 

Princess Cruises, headquartered in Santa Clarita, California, became a Guinness World Records holder for the second time after hosting a large pizza party on board multiple cruise ships. 

Guests aboard a fleet of Princess Cruises boats consumed more than 60,000 slices of pizza during a Guinness World Records attempt on July 12, 2024.

Guinness World Records reported that 11,445 people consumed the pizza in this world record attempt across 16 Princess Cruises ships in Alaska, Europe and the Caribbean. 

The cruise line told Fox News Digital that it attempted the world record title of the "World's Largest Pizza Party at Multiple Venues" to promote its collaboration with 13-time world pizza champion chef Tony Gemignani, who helped make the tasty food on board. 

The pizzas made for the attempt had more than 6,500 pounds of dough, more than 3,400 pounds of flour, nearly 1,400 pounds of pepperoni slices and more than 2,300 pounds of cheese.
