Shining bright! A record-breaking 57,900 Christmas lights decorate a private facade in Mosta
Now there's some festive spirit!

If you thought you were Christmas-obsessed, think again! Mosta resident Gaetano Buttigieg has taken festive decorations to a whole new level, setting not one but two national records this year.

His home’s facade is now adorned with an incredible 57,900 Christmas lights, surpassing his own record from last year of 54,500 lights. The dazzling display has transformed his residence into the ultimate source of holiday cheer, drawing admiration from all passersby.

But Gaetano didn’t stop there. He’s also claimed the national record for the most baubles hanging from a ceiling inside a private residence — an incredible 2,325 baubles, meticulously arranged throughout his house in true wonderland fashion.

Congratulations to Gaetano for his record-breaking achievements and for keeping the Christmas spirit alive in such style!
