01 / 04 — The record — Why we count you

A census. A world record.

The largest gathering of Edwards of every form ever assembled. No jury, no sponsor: one name, one date, and an official count, Edward by Edward.

Step 01
Get counted

Edouard, Edward, Eduardo, Edoardo, Eduard, Edvard: everyone signs up, just once. Every Edward counted today is one more Edward on record day.

Step 02
Gather

On 5 January 2027, Saint Edward's Day, everyone counted is summoned to the same place for Edition 04.

Step 03
Break the record

Goal for Edition 04: 177 Edwards together. Official count, official photo. The number becomes the Edward world record, to be beaten at the next edition.
