Summer 2016 has already smashed records - with soaring July temperatures upward of 30 degrees, and Pokemon once again ruling the gaming world. Never to be outdone by sunshine or Pikachu, this this Summer holiday, Xscape are set to break a few GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ titles of their own - and you could be part of the action!

Saturday 30^thJuly sees a visit to Xscape from GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title Holder,Dan Magness.Dan Magness is a UK TV presenter who started out as a football freestyler, performing phenomenal football tricks at events across the world.

Dan holds multiple Guinness World Records titles. In 2009 he set the record for the Longest marathon controlling a football (24 hours), a time that he then went on to better in 2010 when he extended his record by a whole two hours, raising the bar for other freestylers to strive towards. This amazing feat was followed a few months later by a gruelling 36 mile walk across London in January 2010, keeping a football up the whole time. Dan will be at Xscape teaching his world famous keepy-uppy skills at his football tricks workshop.
