Emily Petersen (6, right) and Maddison Robb (4, next to her) set off two of 150 party poppers to celebrate Christmas in the Park at Takaro Park in Oamaru yesterday.
Next year, the event organiser, House of Breakthrough church, hopes to set a world record for simultaneous party poppers, beating the existing one of 570.
More than 500 were at the four-hour-long Christmas party, the biggest crowd in the three years the event has been held.
