The channel remains the most subscribed entertainment channel on YouTube, in Southeast Asia.
ABS-CBN Entertainment has reached a groundbreaking milestone, amassing 52 million subscribers on its main YouTube channel, making it the most-subscribed Filipino media entity on the video-sharing and streaming platform. This achievement further cements ABS-CBN’s unparalleled dominance in the digital landscape, outpacing competitors and reinforcing its position as a trailblazer in Southeast Asia’s entertainment industry.
The channel, which celebrated 50 million subscribers in October 2024—the first and only Philippine-based channel to hit that mark—continues to widen its lead over rival GMA Network’s main channel, which currently stands at 38.2 million subscribers. With over 57 billion lifetime views as of today, ABS-CBN Entertainment remains the region’s top local entertainment channel on YouTube, a testament to its enduring popularity and innovative digital strategy.
A key driver of this success is the Kapamilya Online Live service, housed on the channel, which streams both classic and current ABS-CBN shows. The platform has revolutionized how Filipinos consume entertainment, offering primetime programming that airs simultaneously with the network’s free TV broadcasts through blocktime partnerships with TV5 and A2Z. This seamless integration of traditional and digital media has kept ABS-CBN at the forefront of viewer engagement.
The channel’s flagship program, FPJ’s Batang Quiapo, has shattered records, achieving a peak live-concurrent viewership of over 900,000 on YouTube—the highest for any local show on the platform. This milestone underscores ABS-CBN’s ability to captivate audiences in real-time, blending compelling storytelling with cutting-edge accessibility.
As ABS-CBN Entertainment continues to dominate the digital realm, its 52 million subscribers and billions of views highlight the media giant’s adaptability and resonance with Filipino audiences worldwide, solidifying its legacy as a powerhouse in both traditional and online entertainment.
