Avenues Mall invites people to witness history being made

MUSCAT: For Oman’s 47th National Day, on November 18, Oman Avenues Mall is inviting the people of Oman to come and witness history being made, with a Guinness World Records official attempt to create the world’s largest 3D national flag built exclusively from Lego bricks.

The flag for the Guinness World Records attempt will be in the form of Oman’s national flag and will feature a width of 4 metres and an overall height of 2.2 metres. A team of experts from STACK Events will construct it, and an estimated 168,000 Lego bricks will be required to complete it.

Visitors to the mall will be able to witness the team in action starting from Thursday, November 16.

Following the achievement of this Guinness World Records title, the 3D national flag will be inaugurated. Representatives from both the Oman Ministry of Tourism and Ministry of Education will be present for the inauguration ceremony, along with Oman Avenues Mall’s senior management. The flag will then be left on display at the mall for all to see.

Gogi George, Avenues Mall and Lulu Group International general manager, Development & Leasing said: “Oman Avenues Mall is honoured to be able to celebrate the day with this exciting Guinness World Records official attempt, where the people of Oman can come and witness history being made with the creation of the world’s largest 3D national flag – in the form of the Sultanate of Oman’s national flag – built exclusively from Lego bricks.”
