ORF celebrates audience records: inspire an anniversary and a film hit!

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - On January 6, 2025, ORF celebrated two anniversaries with a moving TV evening. In ORF 2, up to 667,000 spectators switched on to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the “Million Show” with Armin Assinger. On average, 534,000 fans followed the special edition, which was accompanied by a special team of candidates who had significant events with the number 25. At the same time, ORF 1 offered another highlight with the premiere of the film "Pulled Pork", which captivated 625,000 pairs of eyes. Director Andreas Schmied's crime thriller hit hit the target group 12+ on a market share of 19 percent. The ORF was not only successful in the main evening program-the anniversary editions are also ready for streaming, which the audience also delights, such as der.orf.at With a daily range of 3.699 million seers, this corresponded to 49.0 percent of the total TV population in Austria. ORF 1 has achieved the best value since 2015 with 9.6 percent market share and ORF 2 even 22.3 percent, while the ORF group achieved remarkable 40.4 percent market share between 5:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. The younger groups of spectators, who pursued the broadcasts of sports events and fiction highlights such as the Land thriller "Steirergift" and the extensive report on the US elections, were particularly enthusiastic. These impressive number of spectators make it clear that the ORF is on the right track both in the classic program and in the streaming area and therefore plays a major role in the media offer of Austria.
