Queens

GM Simon Williams had 6 different queens appear on his board in the same game today. Is that a record?

Six queens at the same time: follow link for "most queens".

I recall Callum Kilpatrick made 9 queens at a European tournament. When he tried to put the game into chessbase it crashed the programme.
