Organisers of the Independence March spoke of record turnout on 11 November 2026: about 500,000 participants, with figures close to one million also cited (according to Radio WNET, the organisational headquarters chief Marcin Osowski said so from the stage). The director of the Capital City Security Centre, Jarosław Misztal, said in the evening, after talking to the police, that there could be "as many as 250,000" participants. Onet, counting the occupied area and crowd density, estimated 120–160 thousand at about 16:30, and Wirtualna Polska about 150 thousand on the main route. The organisers did not disclose their counting method. An independent count from aerial footage, or from data on occupied area and crowd density at several moments of the march, would settle it.
