TwitchCon Europe 2023 came to an end this last weekend in Paris. Starting on July 8th, the two-day event saw streamers from all over the world gather at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. TwitchCon Paris marks the third TwitchCon to be held in Europe since 2019. The 2020 TwitchCon Amsterdam was delayed due to the Coronavirus and was finally held in 2022.
Fans, streamers, and generally attendees flocked to Paris for the third iteration of TwitchCon Europe. 1247 different channels went live to cover the weekend of the gaming convention, and Streams Charts has all the data.
TwitchCon Paris 2023 viewership statistics
TwitchCon Paris 2023 was streamed for collectively over 4.1K hours throughout the weekend. The event saw not only industry titans stream but many smaller amateur content creators contribute to the coverage of the event. The numerous streams covering the event accumulated a total of 2M Hours Watched; 1.1M of these hours came from the first day of the event, which also peaked at 143K Peak Viewers.
Despite the huge amount of channels covering the event, viewership was healthy for all involved with an average of almost 250 viewers tuning in to each stream. This figure is almost ten times larger than the Average Viewers per channel for all of Twitch in June (26.4).
TwitchCon Paris was, as you’d expect, covered by a large array of European Twitch streamers. Although many celebrity creators from North America and Asia attended and streamed the event, a larger amount of smaller local European creators covered the event. English was the large majority for the event, with 60% of Hours Watched coming directly from English-language streams.
However, 20.9% of the total Hours Watched were due to French streamers. TwitchCon Paris was of course a must-cover for any upcoming and ambitious streamer from France. France’s neighbour Germany also tagged along, making up 11.1% of the total Hours Watched. Spanish and Russian rounded out the list, and many other European languages like Dutch, Italian, and Polish were present in the data.

Finally, German streamer SkylineTVlive was the sole German streamer to make the cut. The streamer from Frankfurt am Main had some of his most-watched streams ever while at the event.

Esfand has 1.2M Followers on Twitch, ZeratoR is followed by 1.5M, and Jinnytty is quickly approaching her 1M Followers milestone. SkylineTVlive stands out with only 139K. Mr. Wolke must be on cloud nine after this success.
