About 90,000 people to 100,000 people gathered Sunday to pay tribute to Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk, whose memorial service drew one of the largest public turnouts for a private citizen. 

The organization told Fox News Digital that approximately 90,000 people attended the service, with roughly 70,000 bringing the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, to capacity. 
 

Another 10,000 people gathered at the nearby Desert Diamond Arena, a designated overflow venue, according to estimates provided by TPUSA. Additionally, another 10,000 people watched Kirk's memorial service from nearby viewing areas.

Taken together, the turnout underscored the event’s extraordinary scale.
 

Earlier estimates provided by law enforcement officials placed the attendance number around 200,000, though final estimates said 90,000 to 100,000 guests. 

Headlined by political heavyweights, conservative media figures and religious leaders, the memorial service ranks as one of the largest public gatherings ever organized for a private citizen. 

The service for Kirk was broadcast across every major U.S. television network, according to White House Communications Director Steven Cheung.
