Grammy award winner Foxes teamed up with Citroën last week to set a Guinness World Record title for most live concerts in 12 hours in multiple cities.
Louisa Rose Allen, better known by her stage name Foxes, kicked off the attempt in her home city of in Southampton at 10 am before going on to perform in Brighton, Guildford, Reading, Oxford and High Wycombe and finally finishing the tour in London at 10 pm with just a minute to spare.
According to official guidelines, each show had to take place a minimum of 50 km (31 miles) from the last and be given before a minimum of 10 audience members for the entire duration of the concert. Foxes fans turned out in big numbers venue after venue making the mark easily achievable for the popular songwriter.
While driving from gig to gig with the Citroën C1 car, all traffic regulations and laws were also observed since any traffic offence or infringement (such as speeding) would have had invalidated the record attempt.
In addition to thousands of pounds fundraised for Trekstock via ticket sales, Citroën also gifted the record attempt vehicle, a stylish New Citroën C1, to the charity. The car will be entered in their 5th birthday charity auction – taking place in September.
Commenting on her history-making trek, the star said: “I’ve always thought it would be amazing to be a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title holder, so this opportunity was just too good to miss” .
