Calle Ocho – a neighborhood festival in Miami’s Little Havana – earned an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records when 119,986 people formed the world's longest conga line on March 13, 1988.
The conga line is a Cuban carnival dance that was first developed in Cuba and became popular in the US in the 1930s and 1950s.
The dancers form a long, processing line, which would usually turn into a circle. It has three shuffle steps on the beat, followed by a kick that is slightly ahead of the fourth beat.
