YouTube is one of the most visited websites on the internet. As a result, there are creators and channels with millions of subscribers. But which YouTube creators have the most subscribers?
While view numbers are the most crucial YouTube metric, content creators encourage their fanbase to subscribe to their channels in the hopes that they’ll come back to watch their content in the future and, in return, earn them more money.
Of course, for many, the race between Swedish YouTuber Felix ‘PewDiePie’ Kjellberg and Indian production company T-Series is the first thing you think of when you consider the site’s most subscribed channels. With their war raging on for months, the Swede even dropped two diss tracks on T-Series.
Even other YouTubers were determined to help the creator in his fight, with creators like Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson paying for billboards to promote the Swede in his battle. Eventually, though, the war came to an end, and T-Series cemented its place as the top channel on the platform while PewDiePie started slipping down the top list after stepping back.
MrBeast has now emerged as YouTube’s largest individual content creator, with more than 300 million subscribers, becoming the first creator to reach the milestone, after launching a campaign of his own, challenging T-Series to a sub-count face-off “for PewDiePie.”
Top 20 most subscribed YouTube channels – July 2024
Who are the top 20 most subscribed channels on YouTube? Here’s a full list of the names at the top of the video-sharing site.
20) Justin Bieber – 73.2 million subscribers

Bieber’s track ‘Baby’ featuring Ludacris was the most disliked video on YouTube until the 2018 edition of YouTube Rewind usurped it.
