WITH VIDEO: There's a world record attempt going on in Aylesbury - here's how to be a part of it

The Jive Aces, one of the country’s top swing bands are performing at the event on Saturday June 17 and are hoping to break the world record for the biggest ever swing dance.

Organisers are hoping 1,250 people will take part as the current record stands at 1,184.

It was set by the Cowboy Country Swing Club in Wyoming in the USA in April 2015.

Anyone interested in being part of this potentially historic occasion needs to register but advanced sign-ups will get discounted entry to the day.

There is a video of the dance routine within this article to enable you get some early practice in or you can come to one of the specially organised workshops in the run-up to the attempt.

You don’t need a dancing partner or any previous dancing experience, just the energy and enthusiasm to get involved and have fun.
