According to the Guiness World Records, the previous record for most ballet dancers en pointe simultaneously is 306. The record was achieved by Kelly Ripa, Isabella Boylston & James Whiteside on the set of Live! with Kelly and Ryan in New York, New York, USA, on 10 September 2019.

The attempt took place on West 67th Street, which was closed to traffic.
