The Charlie Kirk memorial reportedly generated an estimated 25 to 30 million viewers across various platforms. Online streams alone on just four sources (Fox News YouTube, Associated Press YouTube, Charlie Kirk X account, and Charlie Kirk YouTube channel) totaled over 13 million views. Considering hundreds of other online streams and television viewership, the total is likely over 20 million viewers easily. On-site attendance was estimated to be at least 200,000 people, including those in the main venue and overflow areas. Television viewership numbers were expected to add several million more but are pending official ratings data.
In summary:
- Online viewership: At least 20 million views across platforms.
- On-site attendance: Approx. 200,000 people.
- Estimated total viewership (including TV and international): Around 25-30 million or higher.
This makes the memorial one of the most-watched events of its type recently.
