Uncovering All The Fun Drama At YouTube FanFest 2024

YouTube fans assemble! The hype was real, as YouTube FanFest 2024 (YTFF) finally delivered a good time yesterday, August 1, at Jio World Conventional Centre, Mumbai! The place was buzzing as fans packed in to see their favourite YouTubers LIVE in action. I mean, with a lineup like that, who wouldn’t want to be there? For the fans, YouTube FanFest isn’t just an event—it’s a full-on experience. It’s a chance to stand next to the creators they’ve been binge-watching and admiring for years, making it feel like a dream come true.

The Social Nation team was at YTFF 2024, and let me tell you, it was an epic rollercoaster of fun, music, dance, magic, and non-stop entertainment! It delivered all that and so much more. We were blown away by incredible performances from King, the soulful Jonita Gandhi, the dynamic duo Seedhe Maut, the electrifying W.I.S.H, and Prajakta Koli a.k.a MostlySane, among others who slayed the stage. Hosting this epic bash were comedy geniuses, Aakash Gupta & Gurleen Pannu, alongside the witty Thugesh and magical-creator Suhani Shah, who kept the vibes high and the audience laughing and gasping in awe.

Celebrating 10 Years Of YouTube FanFest

On YouTube FanFest’s 10th anniversary, the streaming giant released a culture & trends report in association with research firm SmithGeiger, entitled “The Power of Fandom.”

Director of YouTube India, Ishan Chatterjee noted that its report found four distinct units of fans, “Today, fandom isn’t just a one-size-fits-all label. It’s a spectrum of engagement: casual fans like & comment. Big fans react and join the trends, while super fans create fan art and remixes. These fan approaches create multiple entry points, making it easier than ever for other audiences.”

Chaterjee also recalled that a decade ago, creators like Lilly Singh & AIB were greeted with madness at India’s first-ever YTFF, where fandoms were no longer narrowed to cricket & cinema. “Today, fans are not just passive consumers, they are active participants who shape the conversation, forge communities, and blur the lines between fan & creator.”
