World Largest Twins’ Gathering and Twins Cultural Evening will be held from January 20-26 and the record will be set during the Sri Lanka Twins Convention at the Sugathadasa Indoor Stadium in Colombo.

 

The organization represents 28,000 twin brothers and sisters from across the country and the cultural event will be held to celebrate the uniqueness of twins and multiples. 

 

According to the organization, ‘The Largest Twins Gathering’ event will represent the twins/multiples community and their individuality while making a stand for a brighter and peaceful world.

Any twin and multiple from around the world can be a part of the event but they have to furnish a copy of their birth certificate and a copy of passport or national ID.
