Los Cabos Breaks Guinness Record With Longest Tuna Sashimi

Participants at the Sashimi Fest 2026 in Los Cabos, Mexico, set a new Guinness World Records benchmark after assembling a 1,200-meter sashimi dish made from 28,000 thin slices of fresh tuna. The feat surpasses the previous record set in Mazatlán, where more than 300 chefs and culinary students created a one-kilometer-long dish using over 19,000 pieces of tuna.

The Fest was held as part of the annual ‘Fiestas Tradicionales San José del Cabo,’ to honor the city’s patron saint, and the recognition goes to the municipality of Los Cabos. About 500 people took part in the effort, including internationally recognized chefs who contributed to the previous record-setting attempt, which was formally certified by Guinness World Records.
