What stands out

Facebook’s list is heavy with brands: 30 of the 50 pages belong to companies, media outlets, clubs, games or fictional characters rather than people, and Cristiano Ronaldo at #2 is the only person in the top four, alongside Netflix, Samsung and Facebook’s own page. Netflix’s rise is the biggest follower gain in the table, from #12 with 108 million in the August 2025 table to #1 with 205 million a year later. Two clusters set this chart apart: five Chinese state-media outlets (CGTN at #10, China Daily, Xinhua News Agency, People’s Daily and Global Times) publishing to audiences outside China, and a run of fictional characters and games, Mr. Bean at #6, Harry Potter at #37 and Candy Crush Saga at #45, that rank alongside real people. Football is the largest sport, with ten rows: three players (Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Neymar), five clubs from Real Madrid at #7 to Manchester City at #50, and the Champions League and La Liga side by side at #22 and #23. Musicians are the largest group of people, 11 rows led by Shakira, the most-followed woman at #8, with Michael Jackson and Bob Marley still among them long after their deaths. The United States supplies 20 of the 50 pages and the United Kingdom seven, led by Mr. Bean; the five Chinese outlets make China third.

Which Facebook page has the most followers?

Netflix, with 205 million followers in the source's table dated August 28, 2026. A year earlier, in the table of August 27, 2025, Cristiano Ronaldo led with 172 million and Netflix was #12 with 108 million; Cristiano Ronaldo is now #2 with 174 million, the most-followed person on Facebook.

Who are the top 10 most-followed Facebook pages?

As of August 28, 2026, the top 10 are: Netflix, Cristiano Ronaldo, Samsung, Facebook, 5-Minute Crafts, Mr. Bean, Real Madrid C.F., Shakira, FC Barcelona, and CGTN. The full table above adds each page's rounded follower count, what the source says the page is, the country it lists, and our own read of the page's likes, weekly engagement and creation date.

Who is the most-followed person on Facebook?

Cristiano Ronaldo, ranked #2 overall with 174 million followers as of August 28, 2026; the source lists him as football player. The most-followed woman is Shakira, #8 with 126 million. 20 of the 50 pages are run by a person; the rest belong to companies, media outlets, clubs, games and fictional characters.

How many Facebook pages have more than 100 million followers?

21 of the 50 ranked pages as of August 28, 2026. 4 of them have passed 150 million (Netflix, Cristiano Ronaldo, Samsung, and Facebook) and 1 has passed 200 million: Netflix. The 50th page, Manchester City, has 60 million.

Why are so many of the top pages brands rather than people?

Brands have run Facebook pages since the format launched in 2007, and 30 of the 50 most-followed pages belong to companies, outlets, clubs, games or fictional characters: Netflix leads outright, and Samsung, Facebook, 5-Minute Crafts, Mr. Bean, Real Madrid C.F., FC Barcelona, CGTN, China Daily, YouTube, Coca-Cola, and Meta all rank inside the top 16. On the Instagram and X charts, people fill most of the top ten instead.

Why are several Chinese state-media outlets on the list?

5 rows are outlets the source describes as state media: CGTN (#10), China Daily (#13), Xinhua News Agency (#17), People's Daily (#29), and Global Times (#33). They publish in English for readers outside China, where Facebook itself is not generally accessible, and their international editions have gathered larger Facebook audiences than most other news pages; BBC News, the highest Western news page here, sits at #47.

Which country has the most pages in the top 50?

The United States: 20 of the top 50 pages. the United Kingdom: 7. China: 5. 18 countries and regions are represented in all, as the source lists them.

What is the difference between likes and followers on Facebook?

Facebook counts the two separately: liking a page is an endorsement, following it subscribes you to its posts. Liking a page follows it by default, but a reader can unfollow a page they still like, or follow one without liking it, so the two figures drift apart. The source ranks by followers; the table adds the like count from our read of October 28, 2026, when Netflix's page showed 210,575,855 likes beside 210,000,000 followers.

How current are these follower counts?

The source's table is dated August 28, 2026 and rounds each follower total down to the nearest million. This page reads the Wikipedia revision of September 24, 2026, read on October 28, 2026, and compares it with the table of August 27, 2025, a year earlier. Our own read of each page, dated October 28, 2026, shows the follower count the page displayed that day in the preview.

How this list is measured

Pages are ranked by their public Facebook follower count as Wikipedia’s list records it in a table dated August 28, 2026, which rounds each total down to the nearest million, so two pages can appear tied at the same rounded value even when their exact counts differ. People, brands, outlets, clubs, games and characters are counted alike, the same way the source treats them. The source’s order is kept where two neighbouring figures are out of order. It lists FC Barcelona (128 million) below Shakira (126 million), and that order is kept here.

Figures are a snapshot from August 2026 and drift as pages gain and lose followers. The category chips are the source’s own description of the page, split at its commas; the countries are the ones the source lists. A page counts as a person’s when the source describes its owner by what they do (a footballer, a musician, an actor, a prime minister) rather than by what the page is.

Pictures, the like counts, the “people talking about this” counts, the categories the pages set for themselves and the dates the pages were created come from each page’s own public Facebook profile, read on October 28, 2026; the follower count Facebook showed that day is in the preview. “Talking about” is Facebook’s rolling count of people who engaged with the page in the past week, as the profile reported it. A dash means a value is unavailable in the dated snapshot. The small figure beside a rank is the page’s move since the August 27, 2025 table of the same Wikipedia list.
