The Guinness World Record for the most tin whistles played at the same time has been broken at the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Co Wexford.
Just over 2,500 people played The Boys of Wexford and The Dawning of the Day at Chadwicks Wexford Park GAA stadium.
It surpassed the previous record of 1,015 players.
Editor-in-Chief of Guinness World Records Craig Glenday was in attendance to officially adjudicate the attempt.
The event's organiser Catherine Roche said they are "thrilled" to have broken the record.
"We've spent months teaching people, from kids to people in their eighties, and the journey to today has been nothing short of inspiring," she said.
Chairperson of the Wexford Fleadh Cheoil Executive Committee Eddie Taaffe congratulated everyone who took part and said "today's success is a perfect embodiment of this year's theme: 'A Fleadh For All'".
"We've brought people together from all corners of the globe and all walks of life to celebrate our rich cultural heritage and make a mark on history," he said.
The festival will run until this Sunday and organisers expect 500,000 people to visit Wexford during the Fleadh.
There will be 15,000 musicians, dancers, singers, and storytellers from diverse communities across the country performing and competing at the festival.
