It was done at the Clarks Village shopping outlet, in Street, Somerset.
Chris Davis, centre director of Clarks Village, said: “We do believe we’ve beaten the most amount of Santas on ice at any one time.
“Previously it was 142 people and we think we’ve got just over 157.
“The festive ice rink at Clarks Village has proved to be enormously popular and for its third year we wanted a grand celebration to welcome its return.
“We’re thrilled to see our festive ice rink return to Clarks Village and to watch so many Santas have fun on the ice was spectacular.
