How this list works

The TEDx talks published in May 2026 on the official TEDx YouTube channel, ranked by current views (last refreshed October 13, 2026). Recent talks are young, so view counts are naturally lower than the all-time 2025-2026 chart.

Most of these talks will plateau within weeks without active promotion. See The TEDx View Gap for why.
