To ring in the New Year, Atlantis, The Palm and Moët & Chandon gathered to break a new world record.

They created the world’s largest drinking glass pyramid at the Maison’s star-studded Effervescence event series at WHITE Beach, Atlantis, The Palm.

The glass pyramid remained in place until 1 January 2022 for the resort’s annual New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner.

All the glasses were then recycled by a local glassblower and transformed into refillable glassware for Atlantis, The Palm.
