Deets: Bring your boo & pucker up! Join us Dec 13 at Anthem Row to make kiss-story under the National Mistletoe & break a world record!
Let's make KISS-STORY, Downtown DC! On Saturday, December 13 starting at 3:00 p.m., we’re hosting the National Kiss Under the National Mistletoe at Anthem Row and we need you to help us break the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™️ title for the most couples kissing under the mistletoe! Bring your boo, pucker up, and join hundreds of lovebirds locking lips beneath the city’s latest holiday attraction.
Suspended 30 feet in the air, the National Mistletoe is a stunning 10-foot installation of greenery, blooms, ribbons, and a jingle bell—a perfect backdrop for that picture-perfect smooch. Enjoy live music, food and drinks by Ellington Carthan Quartet featuring Valentina Maria, photo booths, live art, and more. Whether you’re sealing the deal, rekindling the spark, or just joining for the fun—this is the holiday kiss you won't forget. 💋
The record currently stands at 488 kissing couples. We welcome all of consenting age to participate in a 7-second kissing session. You MUST register in order to participate! Be prepared to also register your kissing partner by name & email. One registration covers one couple (two people).
