KIDZ BOP, the popular children’s music brand, has broken a Guinness World Record by becoming the youngest music group to headline an arena concert. The milestone was officially confirmed during their performance at London’s OVO Arena Wembley, where the group achieved the record with an average age of 14 years and 168 days.
A Guinness World Records adjudicator verified the achievement in front of a packed audience of young fans. This accomplishment means that KIDZ BOP has surpassed the previous record held by Justin Bieber, who performed at Wembley at the age of 16.
The KIDZ BOP Kids captivated the audience with an energetic performance featuring an elaborate stage set-up, interactive moments, and the fan-favourite ‘Daddy Dance Off’. Will Munford, the Guinness World Records adjudicator, presented the official certificate to the group on stage, marking their place in the record books.
The announcement comes ahead of the group’s highly anticipated KIDZ BOP Live Certified BOP Tour, set to begin this summer across the United States. The tour will include more than 60 performances, with KIDZ BOP Kids Aleah, Cliff, Matty, and Shila set to perform hits from their latest album, KIDZ BOP 50. Fans can expect renditions of popular songs like Espresso and Hot to Go! alongside classic KIDZ BOP tracks.
The tour is once again sponsored by Unicorn Academy, the children’s fantasy adventure franchise created by Spin Master. Following a successful 2024 partnership, Unicorn Academy will feature in on-screen content throughout the tour and host pop-up activations in 15 selected cities. These activations will offer fans exclusive experiences, including prizes, photo opportunities, and themed activities.
