Music, circus, dance and fireworks. This is how France 2 planned to end the year 2024. It was a good thing since this program allowed it to post the best audience on Tuesday December 31. According to the Médiamétrie site, the evening filmed live on the Champs-Élysées and hosted by Stéphane Bern was watched by 3.89 million curious people, which represents 31% of the entire public watching television. Last year, “La Grande soir du 31 de Paris” was followed by 4.19 million people, for 30.3% audience share (PDA).
With its “Grand blooper du 31”, TF 1 must be satisfied with the silver medal: 2.11 million fans enjoyed the compilation of the funniest moments of the year, presented by Karine Ferri and Christophe Beaugrand, for an audience share of 16.3%. The channel picks up a bit at the stroke of midnight: the Soprano show and the big fireworks, recorded in Chantilly, put stars in the eyes of 2.76 million individuals (22.2% PDA).

Amid the party favors and evening wear, “Alexandra Ehle”, the lawyer played by Julie Depardieu, managed to attract 1.43 million fans on France 3 (10.4% PDA).
The three thus snatched third place in the New Year's Eve ranking from M 6, which also celebrated the 31st. The show interested 902,000 curious people, or 6.6% market share. This is less than last year, when the evening presented by Élodie Gossuin was able to count on 1.25 million viewers (8.4% PDA).
