Ajman sets Guinness World Record with 603 cars

The Emirate of Ajman has officially achieved a new global milestone, securing its entry into the Guinness World Records for creating the world’s largest celebratory phrase using vehicles. This unprecedented display was a magnificent tribute marking the UAE’s 54th Union Day, also known as Eid Al Etihad.


The feat involved precisely arranging an impressive total of 603 automobiles to form one clear, massive message. The phrase meticulously spelled out was “EID AL ETIHAD UAE 54,” celebrating the nation's five decades of unity and progress. This large-scale, innovative project showcased Ajman’s flair for staging extraordinary national celebrations with immense visual impact.

The event was organised by the Ajman Transport Authority in partnership with Ajman Holding Group and Rayaat Advertising Agency, and held under the patronage of Sheikh Abdulaziz bin Humaid Al Nuaimi, chairman of Ajman’s Department of Tourism, Culture and Information. Representatives from the participating organisations received official certificates from Guinness World Records after the adjudication. Media wire coverage (WAM) carried the official account of the event.

Guinness glory

Guinness World Records’ judges commended the organisers for the technical precision required to synchronise 603 vehicles into a legible, large-scale phrase. Achieving a readable formation of that scale required exact spacing, vehicle alignment and traffic control, all coordinated in real time. The judges’ recognition and the certificates handed to organisers formalised Ajman’s entry in the record books.

The judging panel carefully confirmed that the accomplishment underscores Ajman’s robust capability to execute world-class events with impeccable organizational caliber. Every single car had to be collaboratively placed with precision to ensure the overall message was legible, making the success a notably true testament to flawless teamwork.

Beyond the headline, the record is a symbolic gesture for the 54th Union Day: a public show of pride, unity and community participation. Local officials framed the formation as an example of Ajman’s growing capacity to stage large national events with visual impact. Coverage across national and regional outlets highlighted how the stunt rallied volunteers, drivers and supporting teams, and added a festive, prideful moment to the broader Eid Al Etihad programme across the seven emirates.
