About This Dataset

This chart ranks the most-subscribed channels on YouTube as of 2026, measured in millions of subscribers. The list spans individual creators, music labels and children's entertainment brands that have built the platform's largest audiences.

✨ AI Insight

MrBeast has turned individual creator dominance into a record, leading all YouTube channels with about 507 million subscribers, far ahead of Indian music label T-Series at 313 million. The gap of nearly 200 million between first and second is the widest anywhere on the list. Children's and family content is heavily represented, with Cocomelon (202M), Vlad and Niki (150M), Kids Diana Show (138M) and Like Nastya (132M) all ranking highly. Indian media remains a major force through T-Series, SET India (189M) and Zee Music Company (122M). The data illustrates two winning YouTube formulas: a single charismatic creator like MrBeast, and high-volume, globally translatable content aimed at young children and music audiences.
