After more than 15 years, numerous Alphorn players from allover Switzerland and various other countries gathered up on the Klewenalp in the Canton of Nidwalden. They gathered to aim for breaking the World Record of the largest ensemble of Alphorn players from 2009 up on the Gornergrat, where over 366 Alphornplayers were making music. On the 31st of August in 2024, originally more than 555 Alphorn players were aimed to gather, it happened that a lot more people came and in the end 1006 Alphorn players made it to the Klewenalp. This is almost threefold of the previous record. The concert of Alphorns took more than 5 minutes and was approved by Guinness Book World Records to be valid. Thus, Klewenalp Switzerland holds now the world record of the largest Alphorn Concert of all time!
